Postdoctoral Fellow

 

1) Qualitative analysis of Canadian 2SLGBTQ+ youth online focus groups, describing the experience of coming out to parents/caregivers. The study population also included children of first-generation immigrants from South and East Asia. The aim is to create a culturally-appropriate resource site that will help improve parental connectedness and communication during the coming out process.

2) A study of the feasability, acceptability, and impact on the HIV care cascade of a peer navigator program for street-involved 2SLGBTQ+ youth in Vancouver.
