The mission of Auto Repair Transformation is to close the equity gap in the automotive repair industry by removing barriers to access, inspiring marginalized people to enter and thrive in the industry, and advocating for inclusive and equitable environments. We primarily serve and address the needs of BIPOC, Women, LGBTQIA+, and low-income people.
Our automotive apprenticeship program focuses on expanding access to this industry to women, BIPOC, and LGBTQIA+ individuals. Welcoming folks who have been traditionally left out of the automotive industry will close the inequality gap and ultimately increase the total technician workforce.
Our community workshops program exists to make car repair knowledge more accessible for BIPOC, Women, LGBTQIA+, and low-income people. Learn more about your car so you can be a more informed consumer, save money, stay safe, and tackle basic repairs yourself.
This program provides a FREE exterior light inspection and bulb replacement for low-income community members. Our intent is to keep our BIPOC community safe and reduce the likelihood of folks being targeted by discriminatory policing.
Our Low Income Auto Repair Assistance Fund exists to make critical car repair more accessible for low-income people – especially BIPOC, LGBTQIA+, & houseless individuals. A reliable and safe vehicle is key for maintaining one’s livelihood, accessing medical appointments, and so much more.
