Please only complete this survey if you are:

• a resident of British Columbia, Canada
• an immigrant woman
• an immigrant youth (ages 19-25) of any gender identification
• impacted by violence and abuse before and during the COVID-19 pandemic (family violence, intimate partner violence, gender-based violence)
• from Chinese, Eastern European, Filipino, Persian/Afghani, South Asian or Hispanic communities.

We are looking for feedback on your experience with the use of digital tools (apps and/or online resources), during the pandemic (2020-2022) while facing relationship violence.

This survey will take around 15-25 minutes to complete.
If you are unable to complete the survey in one sitting, you can return to the survey so long as you are using the same device and browser and you have not cleared the cache.
This survey will be active until September 30, 2024.
Your answers are anonymous and will be used to build a web application to enhance safety, mental health, and crime prevention for victims and survivors of relationship violence. Due to anonymity, we will not be tracking individuals who have or have not completed the survey.

Once you complete the survey you will have the option to confidentially submit your email address to receive a gift card on a first-come first-serve basis as a token of our appreciation. If you have any questions or concerns, you can contact the M4Y team at m4y@vlmfss.ca.
