Canada-wide study on Developmental Coordination Disorder

================================== I am Dr. Jill Zwicker, an occupational therapist, researcher, and expert in Developmental Coordination Disorder (DCD) at BC Children’s Hospital. My team and I are currently recruiting parents of children with DCD to participate in an on-line survey. We are conducting research on the physical, social, emotional and financial impact of DCD on the child and family. The impACT for DCD questionnaire will be used to gather this information to inform government about the service needs of children with DCD and their families. If you meet the criteria for participation, please click on the link for further details and to complete the questionnaire. The criteria to participate in this research is as follows: 1. Primary residence of parent(s) and child(ren) is in Canada 2. Child(ren) must be under the age of 18 years with motor coordination challenges 3. These motor coordination challenges are not because of biological, genetic and/or developmental delays (e.g., cerebral palsy, Down’s syndrome, chromosomal abnormality, etc.) 4. Child(ren) may have a diagnosis of DCD, but a formal diagnosis is not required to participate in the study. Parents of children suspected to have DCD may also participate. 5. Child(ren) may have other co-occurring conditions that can include autism, ADHD, learning disabilities and/or speech language deficits. 6. Parents can be biological, adoptive or guardian/caregiver 7. Parents need to be able to speak and read English or French We thank you in advance for your participation in this research study. Please feel free to forward this link to other participants that also meet the listed criteria. French: or English: ==================================
