Study title
Stories that Support: Using Storytelling to Co-Develop a Support Intervention for Sport-Related Concussion
Description
You are invited to participate in a research study to help develop a hockey support program for athletes recovering from a concussion. As an athlete with concussion experience, coach, or team healthcare provider (e.g., athletic therapist, physiotherapist), your insights are valuable in helping us design effective strategies that meet the hockey communities needs. If you choose to participate, you will join a single focus group lasting about 2.5-3 hours, where you will share your experiences and ideas to help improve support for athletes.

2.5 to 3 hours.
Incentive/Compensation
If you take part, you’ll receive a $5 Tim Hortons gift card and some small thank-you items, and snacks will be provided for in-person focus groups. If you wish, we will also provide written confirmation of volunteer hours.
