About Us
Disconnect Tech is dedicated to addressing the challenges posed by the recent and widespread integration of technology into our daily lives. Regardless of background, nearly everyone has experienced the effects of technology, both positive and negative. The overuse of screens can have far-reaching consequences, from diminished face-to-face communication skills to weakened interpersonal connections, as well as anxiety, depression, and reduced productivity. We are not an anti-technology organization. We emphasize the importance of balance and intentional use of technology to prevent it from undermining the quality of life. Our mission is to help college students—who struggle with unhealthy screen time habits and the negative effects that arise from overuse. We focus on raising awareness about how excessive technology use impacts personal well-being, relationships, and communication through workshops, discussions, and community events. Our organization is dedicated to promoting mindful tech usage and cultivating healthy habits. Disconnect Tech is a movement. What we are is written in our name. To reconnect to what matters most, we must first disconnect.
