Ontario Health and Peer Relations Study (HPRS)
The HPRS aims to monitor students to provide accurate reports to schools and the school boards so that timely evidence-based decisions can be made to help promote health, reduce violence, and improve school climate. Participants are over 300,000 students in Grades 4 to 12 in Ontario, Canada who completed an online survey for the study. Baseline data collection began in 2024 and participants will complete annual follow-up surveys.
