The mission of the Gaucho Underground Scholars Program is to provide peer-driven support, assistance, and guidance to formerly incarcerated and system-impacted University Of  California, Santa Barbara students, who are adapting to the challenges of acclimating to the University while striving towards successful community and academic reintegration. It is our aim to connect formerly incarcerated UC Santa Barbara students with the resources and information that may help to increase those students' prospects of success.
