Helios Court on University Ave in Berkeley, is hosting Open Source Wellness for low income seniors. Open Source Wellness is most simply described as a "behavioral pharmacy" to help people with doctor recommendations such as, "Eat better," or "Exercise."
What that looks like is a lively get together once a week where residents exercise together (dance), talk about a variety of topics, and eat together. To really understand the energy and joyousness of the activity you need to be there, but in the mean time you can begin to understand it by watching this video or going to the Open Source Wellness website.
We are looking for an interpreter who will feel comfortable participating in the this active and lively environment rather than standing to the side, and only interpreting.
