Look Good Feel Better (LGFB), in partnership with LogicalOutcomes and the University of Ottawa, is conducting a national study to help improve psychosocial supports for people affected by cancer.
This study explores the practical and emotional challenges that affect quality of life for people living with cancer and identifies gaps in social support services across Canada. Specifically, they aim to:
– Understand the types of support people need at all phases of cancer, including what they
have accessed, what they wished they had, and what would be most helpful.
– Identify barriers and gaps in services, including availability, accessibility, timing, format, and delivery method.
– Examine differences across demographics such as age, gender, ethnicity, region, and socioeconomic status.
They know there are inequities in cancer care, especially for marginalized communities, and that delivery of support has changed significantly since COVID-19. This survey will help them understand both what people need and how they want to receive support.
Who can participate?
Anyone 18+ who has experienced cancer themselves, whether currently undergoing treatment or previously treated. Participation is voluntary, anonymous, and confidential, and the survey takes approximately 15 minutes to complete.
