How will this study be helpful?
We’ll learn how a large group of people with mental health conditions across the country feels about their health, wellness, challenges, successes, and more. We’ll use these results to recommend services and policies that improve the lives of people in mental health recovery.
How is privacy protected?
You won’t be asked to give your name. All we’ll need is your email address if you want to get the $10 electronic gift card. You’ll give your email address after you submit your survey data so the two can’t be connected. Private information collected during this study will not be used for future research studies.
What has the study found so far?
We’ll post preliminary findings to share what we’re learning as we go along.
