Clinic Mauve – Transforming Integrated Care and the Health Workforce for LGBTQIA+ Migrant and Racialized Communities
Principal Investigators: Edward Ou Jin Lee, Ahmed Hamila, Javi Fuentes-Bernal, Andréanne Guidon, Zack Marshall, Régine Debrosse, Marianne Chbat and Osvaldo Arias
LGBTQIA+ migrant and racialized people encounter intersectional structural barriers to care which are exacerbated by challenges in the areas of employment, housing, education, migrant status as well as family and/or community life. This project will support the Clinic Mauve’s Implementation Science Team (IST), which advances an intersectoral and integrated model of care to address the urgent health needs of LGBTQIA+ migrants and racialized people living in Montreal. This research team will further examine the possibilities and challenges of not only deploying innovative service delivery models, but also fostering an equitable health workforce, especially to support and retain systematically disadvantaged health workers.
