Call for Two-Spirit, trans, and gender diverse (2S/TGD) youth! CARE Lab is looking to recruit 6-8 2S/TGD youth across Canada to serve on their youth community advisory board (YCAB).YCAB members will help support an upcoming study about substance use.

Graphic on a background containing blue, pink, and white stripes that appear as though they are coming out of the center of the graphic. The top left displays a royal blue rectangle with the name “Toronto Metropolitan University”, and a smaller bright yellow rectangle sticking out behind its top right corner. The top right displays a blue and yellow bandaid in the shape of a heart. To its right is the text “CARE Lab” that is underlined, with the text “Clinical Addictions Research & Equity Lab” underneath. Just below sits large light blue bold text, each letter outlined with royal blue, that reads, “BECOME A YOUTH COMMUNITY ADVISORY BOARD MEMBER!” Below this is a clip-art image of about 20 young people, of diverse skin colours, gender presentations, and outfits, on a 2-layered light-peach bench with a grassy-green seat top. They are each in a different pose and partaking in different activities, such as talking to each other, drinking coffee, sitting alone, or on their phone. Below that is a dark blue rectangle, spanning the width of the graphic, with pink text that states information about youth community advisory board recruitment. Below that, on the left side, sits a light pink rectangle with a magenta border, containing dark blue text that details the youth community advisory board member demographic criteria. On its right is light pink text with a magenta border that reads “SCAN HERE TO APPLY”. A magenta square QR code with a white background and magenta border sits underneath. The link to the application form appears beneath, underlined in magenta in a white long oval shape with a magenta border. At the bottom of the graphic is a dark blue rectangle with the text “Contact our team for more information” in light blue. Underneath, on the left side, is a yellow circle with the dark blue outline of a globe inside. On the right side is another yellow circle with a dark blue outline of an envelope inside. Next to that is the CARE Lab email in light blue text.
