About me
The B.U.C.K. Squad was formed to take accountability in their own community to stop the violence. The collective group decided to take personal action to address conflicts before they escalated to gun violence in Charlottesville, and the community responded positively to their approach.
The B.U.C.K. Squad then appealed to community members and city officials to invest in professional training and development for the group to become certified “Violence Interrupters” and outreach workers. The need for such a training was highlighted recently when one B.U.C.K. Squad member had a gun pulled on him during a conflict resolution.
