Focus Groups with Canadian Forces Veterans

by **Teentitan** Wed 18 Apr 2012, 11:57

You can help us improve programs and services for Veterans! This spring, Veterans Affairs Canada will be conducting research with Canadian Forces Veterans, still-serving members, and eligible family members to learn more about your views and opinions. Your feedback is critical to ensuring that future services are effective and meet the needs of Canada’s Veterans.

The format will be a "round table" discussion led by a third party professional research supplier. All opinions expressed will remain anonymous and views will be grouped together to ensure no particular individual can be identified. All information collected will be strictly confidential and used for research purposes only, in accordance with laws designed to protect your privacy.

Participation is strictly voluntary. Your decision to participate or not will not affect any dealings you currently have or may have in the future with Veterans Affairs Canada or any other department of the Government of Canada.

If you would like to be considered for one of these upcoming focus groups, please choose one of the topics listed below. Please note that these links will take you to a third party research company who will be conducting the recruitment on behalf of Veterans Affairs Canada.

Your opportunity to participate will be open from April 18 to 30, 2012. If you require additional information about these focus group sessions, please call our toll-free number at 1–866–522–2122.
