Grief and grief support needs in Canada
Researchers from the University of Waterloo and other universities in Canada and Australia are conducting a survey to advance public health understandings of grief and grief support. The Public Health Model of Bereavement Support was developed in Australia; your participation will allow us to understand its fit for the Canadian context and lay the foundation for future research.
We would like to know about the person or people who have died, about your own grief and the support that you did or did not receive. The results of this survey will allow us to better understand grief so that we can help design grief education and supports in the future.
To participate, you must be 18 or older, a resident of Canada, and be grieving the death of one (or more than one) person in the last 5 years (60 months). Participation is voluntary and anonymous. Findings published anywhere will include only summarized results, ensuring that no individual can be identified.
This study has been reviewed and received ethics clearance through a University of Waterloo Research Ethics Board.
