Help-Seeking to Cope With Experiences of Violence Among Women Living With HIV in Canada
Using baseline data from a community-collaborative cohort of women living with HIV in Canada, we assessed the prevalence and correlates of help-seeking among 1,057 women who reported experiencing violence in adulthood (≥16 years). After violence, 447 (42%) sought help, while 610 (58%) did not. Frequently accessed supports included health care providers ( n = 313, 70%), family/friends ( n = 244, 55%), and non-HIV community organizations ( n = 235,…
A Journey of Doing Research “In a Good Way”
The relationship between the First Peoples of Canada and researchers is changing as processes of self-determination and reconciliation are increasingly implemented. We used storytelling and ceremony to describe a historic event, the Indigenous Women’s Data Transfer Ceremony, where quantitative data of 318 Indigenous women living with HIV were transferred to Indigenous academic and community leaders. Relationship building, working together with a …

Building Bridges' success hinged on ongoing co-learning and engagement of Indigenous peoples, service providers and researchers
Racism Experiences of Urban Indigenous Women in Ontario, Canada
The objective of our mixed-methods research study was to present the discourse on racism experiences of Indigenous women living in two urban Canadian cities. A failure to recognize the impacts of racism on Indigenous women in Canada has emerged from the literature. Sharing circles, interviews, and a questionnaire including validated scales were used to collect data. The findings demonstrated that urban Indigenous women experience a number of raci…
Adapting stigma mechanism frameworks to explore complex pathways between intersectional stigma and HIV-related health outcomes among women living with HIV in Canada
Intersectional stigma research examining pathways to HIV outcomes is limited. • Adapted conceptual frameworks to examine intersectional stigma and health outcomes. • Stigma interacted with social/institutional support to increase depression. • Depression led to maladaptive coping, lowering adherence and CD4 count. • Argues for multi-level strategies, including women-centred HIV care
Strategies for Recruiting Women Living with Human Immunodeficiency Virus in Community-Based Research
Having multiple approaches, engaging a diverse team of PRAs, ensuring flexibility, and cultivating reciprocal relationships with community stakeholders were key to recruiting a diverse and representative sample of WLWH
Envisioning Women-Centered HIV Care
Increased mortality among Indigenous persons in a multisite cohort of people living with HIV in Canada
Toward a Bioecological Model of School Engagement
School disengagement is associated with poor academic achievement, dropout, and risk behaviors such as truancy, delinquency, and substance use. Despite empirical research identifying risk correlates of school disengagement across the ecology, it is unclear from which domain these correlates arise. To redress this issue, the current study used intraclass correlation and DeFries-Fulker analyses to longitudinally decompose variance in three domains …
