Students aged 9 to 18 years old in the Waterloo Region District School Board (WRDSB) are invited to take part in the Youth Impact Survey, organized by The Children and Youth Planning Table of Waterloo Region. The Youth Impact Survey is an anonymous survey that hears first-hand from young people about nine dimensions of well-being.

The data collected from this survey will inform strategic planning, grant proposals and program planning, but more importantly, this information can inform deeper more focused conversations with young people to better understand their lived experience and the issues they face in their everyday lives.

About the Youth Impact Survey

The survey is totally voluntary and anonymous and closes on May 31, 2021. The survey will take about 20-30 mins to finish, and asks questions about how you’re feeling, what you like to do, and your thoughts about school and community.
