Strengthening access to restorative places: Findings from a participatory study on engaging with nature in the promotion of health
Supporting Homeless Youth: Perspectives and Preferences
Homelessness among adolescents and young adults is a growing concern in Canada and other countries, yet little is known about their support needs and support intervention preferences from the perspectives of homeless youth or youth at risk of homelessness. The authors assessed these needs and preferences through individual and group interviews with homeless adolescents and young adults (n = 35) and their service providers (n = 27). The unique per…
Who Do They Think We Are, Anyway?”: Perceptions of and Responses to Poverty Stigma
In this article, we report on qualitative findings pertaining to low-income people's perceptions of and responses to “poverty stigma,” a key component of social exclusion with important implications for health and well-being. Our findings are drawn from a multimethod study designed to investigate experiences of social exclusion and social isolation among people living on low incomes. We conducted semistructured individual interviews ( n = 59) and…

Data were collected through semistructured individual interviews with 7 Aboriginal women, and one focus group, in a western Canadian city. Four major categories were elucidated through thematic content analysis: Aboriginal women's life experiences that may influence their risk of HIV inf…
A critical policy analysis of an emerging agenda for home care in one Canadian province
Amidst projections of the increased care demands and expectations for home care, policy in this area demands urgent attention. Home care is inherently complex as it challenges us to deliberate fundamental issues of responsibility for care, and the limits of care for people in their most immediate contexts and needs. This research takes the form of a critical policy analysis of the interaction of the context, process and content of policy proposal…
Lay understandings of the effects of poverty: A Canadian perspective
Although there is a large body of research dedicated to exploring public attributions for poverty, considerably less attention has been directed to public understandings about the effects of poverty. In this paper, we describe lay understandings of the effects of poverty and the factors that potentially influence these perceptions, using data from a telephone survey conducted in 2002 on a random sample (n=1671) of adults from eight neighbourhoods…
