Dear Participant

The Department of Family and Community Medicine at Baylor College of Medicine is conducting a research study aimed at understanding the experiences of mental health practitioners regarding discrimination. Participants in this study will be asked to complete a brief survey, which should take approximately 15 minutes. Your responses will provide valuable insights into the challenges faced by mental health professionals and contribute to efforts to address and manage discrimination in the field.

Completing the questionnaire is for research purposes only. If you consent, please fill out this one-time anonymous questionnaire. Please do not write your name on the questionnaire. We will take all necessary steps to keep any information you share with us confidential.
