SMART YOUTH App for Sickle Cell Disease
A team of graduate students from the Translational Research Program at the University of Toronto is working on a project called SMART Youth, which aims to improve the transition of youth with Sickle Cell Disease (SCD) from pediatric to adult healthcare.
They are looking for young patients and caregivers who are interested in joining them for two co-design workshops. Co-design workshops are a way of collaborating creatively with different stakeholders to find solutions for a common problem. In this case, they want to understand the needs and challenges of youth with SCD and co-create interventions that can help them.
The workshops will be held online and will last about two hours each. You will have the opportunity to share your experiences, learn from others, and contribute to the design of new solutions. Your participation is voluntary and confidential, and you will receive a gift card as a token of appreciation.
