Researchers at BC Children's Hospital are trying to better understand the mental health impacts of COVID-19 on children and their families by asking them to complete an online survey.
Doctors S. Evelyn Stewart and Hasina Samji are leading the study that aims to gauge how the pandemic affects people's feelings and actions over time in order to learn how they manage and which resources may be helpful.
Stewart says the research would provide evidence to guide clinical and policy decisions during this pandemic and those in the future.
Children and youth over the age of seven are invited to fill in a 20 to 30 minutes survey.
Parents are asked to share the experiences of one or all of their children, which takes about 20 minutes extra per child.
