Migraine Survey
The ACPA is conducting a survey to gather information about the experiences of those who live with migraines/headaches to better understand the burden that migraines/headaches cause and what can help to reduce that burden.
If you suffer from headaches, we would appreciate your feedback. We estimate that it will take about 15 minutes to complete this survey. Your input is valuable, and your privacy is important to us. Remember, no individual personal information will be collected. Your input will advance our understanding of migraines/headaches and will help to shape headache-related education for health care providers. Thank you in advance to taking the time to help with the survey.
