UCalgary Recovery Community Hub Grand Opening

University of Calgary / February 2024

The University of Calgary is a pioneer in creating on-campus recovery-friendly spaces in Alberta. 

Last October, the UCalgary Recovery Community (UCRC) opened its dedicated space on campus: the UCalgary Recovery Community Hub at 5, 3500-24 Ave., N.W., next to the Subway in Yamnuska Hall. The hub offers substance-free events, peer support meetings, one-to-one support with social workers, and drop-in space for all campus members. 

The University of Calgary celebrated the grand opening of the UCalgary Recovery Hub, Alberta's first on-campus drop-in recovery space, at the official launch event on Wednesday, February 29, 2024.

Among the esteemed guests and speakers were Calgary Mayor Jyoti Gondek and Dr. Penny Werthner, Interim Provost & Vice-President of the University of Calgary.
