Canadian Community Health Survey

The Canadian Community Health Survey (CCHS) is a nationwide research project conducted by Statistics Canada to gather information about the health and well-being of Canadians. It collects data on various topics such as physical and mental health, healthcare access, lifestyle factors, and social conditions. The survey helps policymakers, healthcare providers, and researchers understand health trends, identify needs, and plan services. Participation involves answering questions through interviews or questionnaires. The information is kept confidential and used to improve health programs and policies across Canada.
