Research Information for CBTm Program
To find out if the CBTm program works for youth in Manitoba, participants will be asked to fill out weekly questionnaires as part of a research study. These questionnaires will be available on Greenspace, an online clinical platform. They’ll ask the individual about their mental well-being and their thoughts on the classes. Please rest assured that any information collected will remain entirely confidential and will greatly assist us in understanding how well this new program works.
