A mixed-methods study protocol on factors contributing to suicide clusters among Native American youth in a northern plains reservation
Introduction: Suicide and suicide clusters within Native American Reservation communities are devastating to the entire community and increase individuals' risk for suicide over the lifespan. The objective of this paper is to describe the Indigenous community-based participatory research protocol implemented in partnership with the Fort Belknap Indian Community in Montana, United States. The study protocol was developed to understand suicide risk…
Women-centred HIV care
Women living with HIV (WLWH) face unique barriers and require specialized, integrated care that focuses on women's specific needs. We conducted a scoping review to examine factors important for a women-centred HIV care (WCHC) approach. We included published peer-reviewed articles which featured WCHC services as their central focus; included study populations of girls and WLWH aged 14 years of age or older; and contributed to the understanding of …
Mental health among transgender women living with HIV in Canada
Antiretroviral therapy adherence among transgender (trans) women living with HIV (WLWH) is negatively impacted by depression and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Yet, little is known about factors associated with depression or PTSD among trans WLWH. Using cross-sectional data from a national community-based study of 1422 WLWH (n = 53 trans women), we characterized the prevalence of depressive and PTSD symptoms among trans WLWH and examined …
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 qualitative study of resilience among transgender women living with HIV in response to stigma in healthcare
Stigma in healthcare is a pervasive adversity experienced by transgender (trans) women living with HIV (WLWH). Resilience is described as individual and collective processes of navigating and overcoming adversity. This qualitative study sought to explore resilience exhibited by trans WLWH in response to stigma in healthcare. Semi-structured, individual interviews were conducted in 2017–2018 with a purposive sample of trans WLWH (n = 11) participa…
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 …
It makes you someone who changes with the times’
Mobile health (mHealth) applications have been developed for community health workers (CHW) to help simplify tasks, enhance service delivery and promote healthy behaviours. These strategies hold promise, particularly for support of pregnancy and childbirth in low-income countries (LIC), but their design and implementation must incorporate CHW clients’ perspectives to be effective and sustainable. Few studies examine how mHealth influences client …
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
Exploring social ecological pathways from resilience to quality of life among women living with HIV in Canada
Resilience, positive growth in contexts of stress and adversity, is shaped by social ecological factors. Among people living with HIV, resilience is associated with myriad positive health benefits and improved health-related quality of life (HR-QoL). Identifying contextual factors associated with resilience among women living with HIV (WLWH) is particularly important as this population experiences many stressors and inequalities. We examined soci…
