We aim to alleviate elder isolation. The Wellness Project promotes wellness through conversational community-building activities hosted in-person. We launched the student-led Community Healing Series in partnership with BeWell OC at various senior living facilities:

The Inn at Woodbridge (Irvine)
The Meadows (Irvine) Heritage Villas (Mission Viejo) Emerald Cove (Huntington Beach) Towers at Nineteenth (Costa Mesa) Linbrook Court (Anaheim) Belage Manor (Anaheim) |
Our teams visit each center at least once a week. If you are interested in joining us, we volunteer Mon-Fri ranging from mornings to evenings. Student drivers are reimbursed for transportation.
