Psychological Impacts of COVID-19 on Canadians
While we move through the phases of the Covid-19 pandemic as a nation, the effects to our daily lives and well-being are experienced individually. Our team of researchers aims to capture these experiences. Through the use of online surveys and targeted interviews, we are learning how Canadians are coping and where to allocate Mental Health resources to those who need it most.
