Season 10 Episode 15: The UCalgary Recover Community

Welcome to Season 10 of Choose UCalgary, the University of Calgary's prospective student podcast. The Choose UCalgary Podcast is intended for any prospective student who is hoping to learn more about the University of Calgary. We will chat with key representatives from the UCalgary community to help keep you updated and informed on all things UCalgary. In this episode, we’re joined by Alex, a current UCalgary student, and Cole, a UCalgary alum and staff member with the UCalgary Recovery Community (UCRC). Together, they share the history of UCRC, how they each became involved, and why the work has been so meaningful to them. We talk about the support UCRC offers students, the importance of building community, and how students can find connection in a welcoming, recovery-focused space on campus. Whether you’re looking for support, community, or simply want to learn more about the resources available at UCalgary, this conversation offers insight into one of the many ways students are supported beyond the classroom.
