Governing across deep differences
How can universities govern across deep differences in an era of polarization and frayed epistemic trust? Higher education governance too often frames diversity as a risk to be managed rather than a generative force. This article introduces a novel Inclusive Governance Model, co-designed and implemented at a Canadian research university, which operationalizes ethical space, pluralism, and relational accountability. Using participatory action rese…
Improving infectious TB education for foreign-born patients and family members
Objective: In low tuberculosis (TB) incidence countries, linguistic and cultural dissonance between families experiencing infectious TB and TB health care providers is a barrier to effective communication and successful treatment. The purpose of this research was to explore infectious TB education and counselling from the perspective of patients and family members who are foreign-born. Design/Setting: One component of a multiphase, qualitative ca…
Codesigning person‐centred quality indicators with diverse communities
INTRODUCTION: Effective engagement of underrepresented communities in health research and policy remains a challenge due to barriers that hinder participation. Our study had two objectives: (1) identify themes of person-centred care (PCC) from perspectives of diverse patients/caregivers that would inform the development of person-centred quality indicators (PC-QIs) for evaluating the quality of PCC and initiatives to improve PCC and (2) explore i…
Blending Traditional and Nurturing Fathering
Objective Against a backdrop of hegemonic masculinity, we contribute to understandings of how having a child with autism impacts fathers' navigation of work and family responsibilities. Background Parents of children with autism face distinct needs related to accessing health, education, and social supports for their children. In supporting their children, fathers may feel pulled between traditional financial provider roles and relatively nurturi…

Our objective was to explore FMNCP participants’ experiences of accessing nutritious foods, and perceived program outcomes. Design: This study used qualitative description methodology. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with FMNCP particip…

In this instrumental case study, contrasting experiences of two adults with developmental disabilities living in Alberta are examined. Data were gathered from semi-structured interviews dedicated to learning about configurations of support, challenges and successes in giving and receiving support, and future pl…

Who Do We Think We Are? Disrupting Notions of Quality in Qualitative Research
The purpose of this article is to illuminate our troubles with, and troubling of, the trustworthiness dimension of balancing subjectivity and reflexivity, in qualitative research. This article evolved from debriefing sessions between three novice researchers working on a qualitative research study aimed at building understandings of the relational dynamics between adults with developmental disability diagnoses (ADevD) and their caregiving familie…
More Than Meets the Eye
In Canadian law, the concept of autonomy is individualistic in nature, manifest as the capacity, or legal ability of an individual to actively understand the purpose and consequences of their actions according to whether they have faculties to comprehend and weigh risks and benefits. Feminist scholars critique such conceptualizations of autonomy and, instead, argue the importance of “relational autonomy” which is predicated on the view that actio…
Mask Making in Human Services Education
This article is an examination of strategies for engaging students in programs of human services education. We describe an in class mask-making activity, used by three human services instructors at an undergraduate university in western Canada, as a means of engaging students to grow in individual and collaborative awareness and skills. We present a survey study, conducted with students who have taken part in mask making, to examine their perspec…
Theorizing resilience
This paper provides an account of prevailing conceptualizations of resilience (namely, social–psychological/ecological definitions of resilience) and critiques them using a disability studies approach. We argue that, to date, the concept of resilience is overly prescriptive and constrained by hegemony, positivism, and ability-centrism. When unbounded, resilience may more robustly reflect the complexities of relationships and life processes of tho…
Voices of care for adults with disabilities and/or mental health issues in Western Canada
Our purpose in this paper is to report on the frustrations and unmet needs of paid, formal caregivers and unpaid, family caregivers who together provide care to adults with disabilities and/or mental health issues. We conducted eight focus group interviews between November 2010 and June 2011 in two large, urban centres and one smaller centre in Western Canada. Four of our focus groups were with family members including adults with disabilities an…
