Lupus Canada will distribute an invitation to participate in the study through their mailing list, website, social networks providing a link to the questionnaire. Their mailing list database comprises about 8,000 individuals, including patients. Lupus Canada will reach out to the lupus community to inform them about their eligibility to participate in the study. Those meeting the eligibility criteria will be invited to sign the informed consent form (ICF) and complete all the study questionnaires on the PROxy web-based platform. For any questions, interested participants will have access to the contact information of the PROxy team, and a designated team member will communicate with participants by phone to answer all questions.
