Positive forces for care
African, Caribbean, and Black (ACB) women face enduring socio-structural inequities, yet research on what positively influences their engagement in the HIV care continuum is limited. This community-based qualitative study, conducted in collaboration with HIV-focused clinics, involved 10-ACB women living with HIV and 12 care staff in Winnipeg. Guided by critical-race and feminist theories, intersectionality, and constructivist grounded theory, sem…

Live-In Family Enhancement (Life)
Family enhancement is an approach to child protection that has been recommended by numerous reviews of child welfare practice. A recent example emerged from a comprehensive review of the child welfare system in Manitoba, Canada. The inquiry recommended that family enhancement be utilised in all child welfare cases, and be funded at levels reasonable enough to allow comprehensive support for families seeking to re-unify. Agency staff told the inqu…
Families with fetal alcohol spectrum disorders
Fetal alcohol spectrum disorder (FASD) is the leading non-genetic cause of developmental disability in Canada. It poses many challenges at the individual, family and societal levels. This study explores adoptive parents’ experiences of having a child with FASD in their family and how these experiences impact family well-being and, specifically, parenting, family dynamics, sources of support and coping strategies. Using an Interpretive Phenomenolo…
Indigenous Men Adhering to Highly Active Antiretroviral Therapy
Introduction: Indigenous peoples in Canada have endured and continue to experience the impact of colonization by European settlers. The deleterious manifestations of intergenerational historic trauma (HT) are evidenced in the high HIV/AIDS epidemic-related premature mortality rates among Indigenous men, despite the availability of novel highly active antiretroviral therapies (HAARTs). Aim: The aims of this study were to explore the impact of hist…

Our scholarship program is a bi-directional, 3-month international experiential learning program, including both undergraduate and graduate students, with associated online course focused on community engagement. Students completed a semi…
The ripple effect
The Abecedarian Approach is an internationally recognised early childhood intervention program that has shown long-term positive outcomes for children living in low SES communities. However, there are few studies examining the broader influence of such interventions for young children on the lives of their parents. This article describes the findings of a qualitative study exploring the perceptions and experiences of parents whose children attend…

Maternal Social and Economic Factors and Infant Morbidity, Mortality, and Congenital Anomaly
Experiences during infancy create durable and heritable patterns of social deprivation and illness producing health disparities. This retrospective cohort study of 71 836 infants from Winnipeg, Manitoba, assessed associations between maternal social and economic factors and infant mortality, morbidity, and congenital anomaly. This study found that newborn and postneonatal hospital readmissions are inversely associated with geography. Additionally…

A qualitative study on the intersectional social determinants for indigenous people who become infected with HIV in their youth
The findings highlight the need for policies and programs that are broadly focused, addressing multiple social determinants together. Overall, there needs to be more emphasis on the multiple social determinants in the life situations of all Indigenous youth. Reducing the health and social disparities in Indigenous youth is key to reducing the number of young Indigenous people diagnosed with HIV. The findings also shed light on the importance of l…

Prevalence, risk behaviours, and HIV knowledge in an Indigenous community in Colombia
There are 87 Indigenous ethnic groups in Colombia, representing 3.4% of the country’s population. Poverty, forced displacement, and social and health inequities place Indigenous communities at increased risk of HIV/AIDS. However, little is known about the prevalence of HIV in this population. The objectives of this study were to estimate the prevalence of HIV and other sexually transmitted infections in an Indigenous community in Colombia, and to…

The benefits of information communication technology use by the homeless
Recent studies have suggested that technologies are becoming an increasingly ubiquitous element in the lives of individuals experiencing homelessness. With both Canadian and US researchers reporting staggering levels of homelessness on both sides of the border, an understanding and synthesis of the current literature exploring how technologies are being utilized by homeless individuals and how it may impact their well-being is of relevance to pol…
The Association Between Community Stressors and Asthma Prevalence of School Children in Winnipeg, Canada
It is generally surmised that community stressors have an incubating effect for a variety of diagnoses on maternal and child health. This is of public health significance, as children of mothers facing long-term distress were found to have a 60% higher risk for asthma diagnosis at age 7 in Manitoba, Canada. Our objective was to determine the association of community stressors with childhood asthma prevalence in Winnipeg, Canada from participants …

Trauma and suicide behaviour histories among a Canadian indigenous population
Validation of a Culturally Appropriate Social Capital Framework to Explore Health Conditions in Canadian First Nations Communities
An earlier study of our research group formulated a conceptual framework of social capital for First Nation communities and developed a culturally appropriate instrument for its measurement. We tested this instrument further with the Manitoba (Canada) First Nations Regional Health Survey, 2003. Using data from this survey, we investigated the bonding dimension of the social capital conceptual framework, with a total sample of 2,765 First Nations …

Formal and informal sector health providers in southern India
Healthcare providers (HCPs) play a central role in the provision of prevention and care services for people with sexually transmitted infections (STIs), including HIV/AIDS. However, the degree of readiness for this role through appropriate training and experience is not clear. In the case of both the urban and rural areas of the state of Karnataka, India, primary and secondary healthcare is provided by practitioners who can be categorised into th…
