Volunteer-led programs are growing nationwide, offering people a way to fix broken items. These programs provide tools and guidance to help residents repair household items. In some areas, events like fix-it clinics are available, where people can bring broken items to be repaired.

A new resource is available to help people find these events, although details about its use in Nashville are not specified. Further information about this resource and its availability can be found through the US Public Interest Research Group, which is promoting the tool.
