SUMMARY:September 2026 Fix-It Clinic
DESCRIPTION:Attend the Fix-It Clinic where skilled volunteers will teach you how to repair your broken household items. \n\n\n\n\nGot a broken item like a torn shirt\, faulty blender or worn-out toy? Bring them to a Fix-It Clinic and learn hands-on repair skills with help from our expert volunteers—free of charge! RSVP for a time slot here. \nNew policy: We will no longer work on computers\, cell phones\, or tablets at the Fix-It Clinic. These projects often require extensive troubleshooting and take up a lot of our volunteers’ time. Instead\, we encourage you to subscribe to the Fix-It Austin newsletter to receive announcements of upcoming workshops focused on electronics repair\, consult the Austin Reuse Directory to find a professional repair shop\, and/or look for a repair guide on the IFixIt website. \nHow it works: Bring up to two items (excluding computers\, cellphones\, and tablets) and work with our coaches to learn how to fix them. Tools will be provided\, but feel free to bring your own. If you know your item needs a replacement part\, please bring it with you. While we can’t guarantee every item will be repaired\, you’ll learn how it works and what you may need to fix it. Note that our electronics/miscellaneous category is the most popular and sometimes there is a wait to work with a volunteer. \nDrop-off option: Can’t attend in person? Drop off your item at the Turner Roberts Recreation Center (7201 Colonly Loop Dr.)\, September 11-17. We’ll try to fix it\, and you can pick it up September 20-25. Items not claimed by September 25 will be donated. Space is limited\, and a waiver is required.

SUMMARY:Bystander Intervention to Stop Immigrant and Refugee Hate
DESCRIPTION:Hate\, harassment\, and violence against immigrants is on the rise—but everyday people have the power to create safer\, more inclusive communities. Right To Be’s Bystander Intervention to Support Immigrant Communities Training equips participants with the tools to safely and effectively intervene when they witness anti-immigrant hate\, harassment\, or discrimination. \nUsing Right To Be’s 5Ds of Bystander Intervention methodology—Distract\, Delegate\, Document\, Delay\, and Direct—this interactive training empowers participants to take action while prioritizing safety. Whether it’s witnessing xenophobic comments\, workplace discrimination\, ICE encounters\, or public harassment\, this training provides practical\, real-world strategies to support immigrants facing harm. \nThis training is encouraged for allies\, but everyone is welcome. If you are undocumented or at risk of being targeted by ICE\, we recommend also attending a Know Your Rights training and engaging in safety planning. \nTogether\, we can create a culture of safety\, solidarity\, and dignity for immigrant communities. Join us to become an active bystander and help build a more just world.
