Services for Independent Living (SIL) is looking for volunteers for its Wii Excellerate program, which is designed to help kids who have a disability learn social skills through fun, interactive games including the Nintendo Wii and board games. Volunteers are asked to help by playing the interactive games, and modeling appropriate social skills, as well as setting up and cleaning up the space for up to 25 youth. Pizza is provided and this program makes a big difference in the lives of the participants and is a lot of fun!

The program meets every first and third Friday of every month at SIL from 5:00-8:30.
