We organize into local chapters because we believe one of the most valuable tasks we can do is rebuild the social network for the movement across the country. Forming local groups to regularly meet lays a foundation for strong communities who can then be motivated and equipped to reach out to their local communities and get stuff done.
The B40 Wiki acts as a medium-speed “forum” and central hub for all our operations – we supply crowdsourced documentation, links, news, and requests for help on here.
Apart from that, we do most of our communications via Signal. These chats as a venue for free-software organizers across the United States to be able to talk to each other and share tips. If you’re interested in connecting with us, please fill out this interest form. Alternatively, you can directly reach out to any of the organizers to request an invite!

If you’d like to begin the work of starting your own chapter, read over our instructions for starting a chapter and then reach out to us!
