INDIVIDUAL MEMBERSHIP
Add your voice to the fight for repair
You shouldn’t need a manufacturer’s permission to fix something you own. Individual membership connects you with people working to restore that freedom—and helps fund the advocacy that turns public support into enforceable rights.
Whether you repair professionally, fix your own equipment, teach repair skills, or simply believe ownership should mean control, you belong in this coalition.

REPAIR BUSINESS MEMBERSHIP
Give independent repair a stronger voice.
Your business needs fair access to the parts, tools, software, and information required to serve your customers. Repair.org brings independent repair businesses together to defend that access and shape the rules affecting the repair industry.
Membership makes your business part of a national coalition with the reach and credibility to compete for political influence—not just market share.
Start with core Repair.org membership, or add Electronics Resource Network partner benefits with SMB+.
EDUCATIONAL & NONPROFIT MEMBERSHIP
Put repair knowledge into more hands.
Schools, nonprofits, repair cafés, and community organizations help people build practical skills and confidence. This membership path brings those organizations into the national coalition working to make repair accessible everywhere.
Educational and nonprofit members receive the benefits of Repair Business Membership, with additional recognition for their teaching and social-impact work.
