We hope you are staying safe and healthy. This paid research study invites self-identified 2SLGBTQIA+ (2 Spirit, Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Trans, Queer, Intersex, Asexual/Agender) people residing in the Greater Toronto Area  to help us document and understand their mental health experiences in the context of social isolation, social distancing, and other mandated safety measures. Your contribution will help us to better understand how Torontonians are affected by the pandemic and could help us to develop recommendations for policies that support and benefit marginalized members of our community. We ask that you first complete a short Screener in order to assess your eligibility to participate.
