Let's say you are home and a JSLC interviewer comes by and requests an intervivew. If the time is not convenient, please schedule a better time and participate.
Has the data from the JSLC ever been used for practical purposes? Yes it has, and you or someone who you know has benefitted or is currently getting a benefit.
I do not use social services, I go private. Why should I participate? This is so the public policies can be guided by national data across the population.
A lot of detail is collected in the JSLC.....will it be kept private? Yes, your data is anonymized so you can never be personally identified.
