LINC Project
The Living with a Neurological Condition or LINC Project is a national study to learn about the everyday lives of Canadians living with a neurological condition - as they work, go to school, raise families, and participate in their communities. We want to learn about the supports and resources that make everyday life possible and meaningful for people of all ages. It is our hope that the findings of this research project will inform service and policy development for people living with neurological conditions across Canada.
