September 16, 2026 / 10:00 am - 11:00 am MST
Join Lisa Teigen, Healthy Campus Alberta, and Recovery on Campus to learn more about Unplugging With Purpose: a two-day, province-wide digital detox taking place across Alberta campuses during National Addictions Awareness Week!
Lisa will share ideas and insights from The King’s University’s own Unplugging With Purpose events, including approaches for engaging students and creating meaningful opportunities to step away from screens. Then, participants will take part in an interactive idea-sharing and Q&A session. Bring your questions, activities, resources, and ideas as we explore how campuses across Alberta can make the province-wide event engaging, accessible, and impactful for students.
