Our Mission
Amigos de UCLA, established in 1962 (and known then as Amigos del Barrio), is the longest running tutorial project in the Community Service Commission. Amigos focuses its efforts on achieving educational enrichment and equity in Arlington Heights, an under-resourced community in mid-city LA. Through weekly one-on-one tutoring at our middle school sites, our little and big amigos build a strong reciprocal relationship in which both tutor and tutee benefit from the experience.
