标题：“It’s Better Late Than Never”: A Community-Based HIV Research and Training Response to Supporting Mothers Living with HIV Who Have Child Welfare Involvement
摘要：Grounded in community-based research (CBR) principles and an anti-oppression framework, the Positive Parenting Pilot Project (P4) aimed to develop, implement, and evaluate an HIV education and training module to enhance the provision of support for families affected by HIV and who are at risk of or already involved with child protection services. We set out to strengthen the ability of Children’s Aid Societies (CAS) in Ontario to provide anti-oppressive services to families affected by HIV from diverse communities by increasing the capacity of social workers who support these families. Applying the principles of CBR, we increased communication and forged new collaborative relationships within and between CAS agencies, the HIV service sector, parents living with HIV, and researchers in order to better address family needs at societal and structural levels. The goal of this project was to develop, provide, and evaluate a framework for an anti-oppressive education and training module related to the multiple layers of oppression that are experienced by families living with HIV including HIV-related stigma and discrimination, racism, sexism, violence and poverty. This paper presents the qualitative analysis of pre- and post- focus groups with CAS workers who participated in P4 and the emerging practice implications for working with families living with and affected by HIV.
