U of G pilot study finds mental health at top of COVID-related impacts in rural communities

The study began in fall 2020 and was followed by a larger-scale project in 2021, funded in part by the Ontario Agri-Food Innovation Alliance, that collected nearly 30,000 survey responses from residents in Bruce, Dufferin, Durham, Elgin, Grey, Middlesex and Oxford counties.

The goal of this research is to inform post-COVID rural policy.
