Cape Breton University and Nova Scotia Health have partnered to launch the WellNS health survey, designed to collect information on mental health and substance use in the province. The survey was developed by stakeholders at both institutions, as well as through collaboration with community organizations and experts. “Our main objective was to develop a clear, data-driven overview of mental health and wellness across all age groups in Nova Scotia,” said CBU Assistant Professor Samantha Hodder. The survey results will be used to support policymaking in the province.
