Join a Study to Support Young Carers in Canada!

Did you know there are approximately 1.5 million young carers in Canada, under age 30, providing essential care to loved ones? These young carers often go unrecognized and unsupported, impacting their physical and mental health, social lives, education, and work. Our four-year national study led by Dr. Roberta Woodgate aims to co-design policies and research priorities to improve their well-being, with young carers playing a central leadership role. Participants will engage in interviews and arts-based projects, collaborating with stakeholders to drive policy change. Your participation can make a difference! Join us in this vital effort to support young carers across Canada. Interested participants can email : ingauge@umanitoba.ca

Join our research study: Partnering for Young People Caring for Family and Friends

Eligibility for participation:

Age 12-30 years
Providing care for a family member or friend
