What We Are

Disconnect Tech is dedicated to addressing the challenges posed by the recent and widespread integration of technology into our daily lives.

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.

Disconnect Tech is a movement. What we are is written in our name. To reconnect to what matters most, we must first disconnect.

What We Plan To Do

Short Term

At Disconnect Tech CWRU, we will host informative sessions, device-free activities, speaker series, and many more other engaging events.

We intend to gain the trust, recognition, and support of the student and faculty population at Case Western Reserve University.

Long Term

Because we believe that the issue is widespread and far-reaching, the solution must also be widespread and far-reaching. We intend to harness the power and enthusiasm of young people nationwide to modify the current social norms surrounding technology use.

We will develop a screen time tracker app intended for college students and colleges around the United States. The colleges with the best habits will be rewarded monetarily to donate to a charitable cause of their choice.
