Gain research project experience: Join the HEAT-MIND Lab's Young Person's Advisory Group (YPAG)!

Young adults ages 18–25 are invited to join a virtual Young Persons’ Advisory Group
(YPAG) contributing to research on the effects of heat and climate on mental health.
This study is led by researchers from Hartford HealthCare, Yale University, and the
University of Oxford.

Participants will help shape the design and outreach of a multi-year research project while gaining experience related to research methods, recruitment, and translation of findings. The group meets remotely and includes young adults from across the country.

Participation lasts one year (with the option to renew) and all activities are compensated.

We are especially interested in hearing from young adults who have personal experience with depression and are passionate about mental health and climate issues.

Interested individuals can fill out this form https://redcap.hhchealth.org/surveys/?s=TJRJWWX7F3KRLTNC or reach out directly to the HEAT-MIND

Lab for additional information or to ask questions.
