COVID-19 Research Study
Research participants sought to study the effect of COVID-19 on the OCD community
We are conducting a research survey to study the ways the Coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak is affecting the lives of individuals with obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). If you are an adult (aged 18 years old or more) with OCD we would value your participation in this study to be able to determine how this outbreak is affecting the OCD community. If you elect to participate you will complete approximately a half-hour of survey questions online. Your responses will be kept strictly confidential. You will also have the option to be entered into a raffle for one of two $100 gift cards. To learn more about the study please follow the link below:

Pediatric DBS Study
ARE YOU A PARENT OF A CHILD WITH REFRACTORY OCD? WE ARE RECRUITING PARTICIPANTS FOR A STUDY to learn about the experiences of people who have conditions for which pediatric deep brain stimulation (pDBS) is available or conditions for which pDBS may be available in the future. You and/or your child are being asked to participate so that we can learn what caregivers and children with OCD think about this technology. Participation involves one 60 minute interview and short questionnaire for each the caregiver and the child, separately. We will compensate participants with a $50 Amazon or Apple gift card for each interview. We’re seeking: Parents (aged 18+) of children with OCD and children with OCD who are between the ages of 9 and 17. We would like both parent and child to participate but would still like to speak with you even if only one person is interested.
