COVID-19 survey findings

A big thank you to the study members, across the five studies, who completed our COVID-19 surveys. Researchers are using the data from the COVID-19 Survey for hundreds of research projects, looking into the impact of the pandemic on mental health, employment and finances, family responsibilities and access to healthcare.

HOW YOU'RE HELPING MAKE A DIFFERENCE
