Go from auto airhead to shecanic!

The Shecanic Foundation currently hosts the popular Girls Auto Clinic (GAC) Car Care Workshop, a hands-on automotive experience designed for women, providing an engaging space for attendees to step into the garage, roll up their sleeves, and gain confidence in their vehicle service maintenance. Women from around the country sign up to attend our monthly FREE Workshops.

The GAC Car Care Workshop is designed to be interactive and fun with no crazy, over-your-head car talk. It is exciting way to learn about your car, what maintenance you can do to prolong the life of your car (and save money), how to talk to a mechanic, and what to do in an emergency, we provide a safe space for you to: ask questions, let go of any shame of being an uneducated car owner, and become a more confident driver.

We offer practical and easy tips like, what is the purpose of coolant?  How can I tell if I need brakes?  What do the letters on the side of my tire mean? What can I touch under the hood of my car?  What should I not touch? and much more!!

Girls Auto Clinic Glove Box Guide is a one-stop do-it- herself guide to auto maintenance, repairs, and roadside emergencies.

Author Patrice Banks, a self-described “auto airhead®,” was like many of us: she didn’t know the first thing about her car, and was accustomed to ignoring the dashboard lights because she felt so uncomfortable taking her car in.

She sought out a female mechanic and found that, despite making up the majority of car owners and licensed drivers, women account for less than 2% of auto mechanics. So Patrice took her engineering degree and became a certified automotive technician, giving auto-workshops to women and girls all across the Philadelphia area.

Now with THE GIRLS AUTO CLINIC GLOVE BOX GUIDE, Patrice will empower all women to take care of their cars.
