Mental health component for the 2013-2014 CCHS

Question

A researcher is asking whether there will be a separate CCHS Mental health component for 2014 or 2013-14, as there was in the previous cycle?

Answer

The CCHS 2012 Mental Health was a separate survey (previously done in 2002). While the CCHS ANNUAL survey does ask some mental health questions, they are 2 separate surveys, so no, there will not be another Mental Health survey/data released with the 2013-2014 annual survey.
