Using Concept Mapping for Empowerment and Advocacy

Join us December 18 from 10-11 AM Pacific time for this new webinar.  Register now.

People who use substances often experience stigma and discrimination when accessing health and social services. This failing of the system can lead to folks not accessing and/or disconnecting from care and support.

Concept mapping is a concept that supports community in brainstorming, sorting and rating important concepts for health care models. A recent study partnering people with lived experience and researchers at the University of Victoria applied the concept of culturally safe care to develop a model of care from the perspective of people who use substances. Join us December 18 to learn how to identify and enhance safer care environments that prioritize the building of trust and relationships, and how you can improve access and support advocacy for people who use drugs.

This webinar will be led by Bernie Pauly and a peer researcher from the study.
