CTYHS 2024
The 2024 Canadian Trans Youth Health Survey is officially live.
We want to hear from the next generation of trans and non-binary Canadians. You’re the experts of your experiences, and we’re here to listen.
The Canadian Trans Youth Health Survey is a national survey of trans, non-binary, and gender diverse Canadian youth ages 14-25 that runs every five years. The study is managed by the Stigma and Resilience Among Vulnerable Youth Centre with co-investigators across the country. Results help researchers identify health disparities, theorize helpful interventions, and describe trends in gender diverse health, values, identity, and experience. This research is core to developing successful advocacy and change in our social and health care systems.
To participate in the study, you must be between 14 and 25, live in Canada, and be non-binary, trans, and/or gender diverse.
The survey will be available through May 2024.
In 2014, SARAVYC ran the first Canadian Trans Youth Health survey, a bilingual survey to learn about the health of transgender youth in Canada. It was the first and largest of its kind in Canada. Five years later, in 2019, we conducted the same survey with a few additional questions. This year, we’re running it again with our colleagues across Canada.
