The Buckingham Youth Brigade (BYB) leadership program consists of an incredible, diverse group of teens many of whom have grown up together. The majority of our students are immigrants or first generation and they represent a range of ages, interests, and GPAs and each one has indefinite potential.

Weekly tutoring sessions will taking place in person at the Lubber Run Community Center on Wednesdays from 5-6:30pm.

Description
BU-GATA, short for Buckingham and Gates of Arlington , was established by Latino renters in 1992.
BU-GATA was created to stop displacement from a neighborhood multi-family complex, the Gates of Arlington. As the organization grew stronger, residents began to broaden BU-GATA’s focus to include community stability, and in 1998, addressed another neighborhood need - youth leadership development - by creating the Buckingham Youth Brigade.
As a community-based non-profit, BU-GATA has focused on defending tenants, educating residents about their rights, and fighting to preserve the community when gentrification threatens.
BU-GATA's mission is to serve Arlington's low-income, immigrant communities through education and leadership development programs, focusing on education and civic engagement in public policy issues.
