The BIPOC Women’s Health Network aims to provide healthcare resources for serving racialized women in local Canadian communities. We believe providing information that is culturally-sensitive, anti-oppressive, multilingual, feminist, and pro-choice is crucial to addressing healthcare disparities faced by BIPOC women and the 2SLGBTQ+ community. Their organization is dedicated to accomplishing these goals by providing education for healthcare providers, medical students, and patients.

Healing the Hurt: Caring for Indigenous Mothers is a study conducted in 2018 aimed to understand how Indigenous mothers in Hamilton, Ontario experienced using health care services for their infants. This community-engaged study was designed and supported through a partnership with the Hamilton Regional Indian Centre (HRIC). This two-part video series which came to flourish through interviews and group discussions were created in response to the desire of the mothers to share their stories directly with HCPs, aiming to stimulate transformative change in attitudes, beliefs, and healthcare delivery. It is their hope that with an accurate understanding and appreciation of the history of Indigenous people in Canada, healthcare professionals are motivated to abolish negative stereotypes, and to promote safe and equitable access to health care for their Indigenous clients. Such commitment to culturally-safe and trauma and violence informed care will help to  improve the health outcomes of Indigenous patients and their families. Healing the Hurt

Sisters by Heart is a group of parents and patients who came together during their journeys with Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome, many of whom were fortunate to meet prior to their child’s birth. They’ve supported each other in their journeys with a single ventricle for the past decade. Knowing the challenges and difficulties they faced at their own child’s diagnosis (and those first several months of life), Sisters by Heart was created to reach out and support parents of the newly diagnosed. A major aspect of their mission is sending care packages to parents at the beginning of their journey. They want them to know they are not alone and to provide resources and understanding while their child undergoes care and treatment from birth and beyond. At Sisters by Heart, everyone is a volunteer. They proudly dedicate their time and energy to Sisters by Heart because they feel strongly about its mission and positive vision for single ventricle patients and families. Sistersbyheart

WomenHeart: The National Coalition for Women with Heart Disease was founded in 1999 by three women, Nancy Loving, Jackie Markham, and Judy Mingram who had heart attacks while in their 40s and faced many obstacles, including misdiagnosis, inadequate treatment, and social isolation. It all began in 1998 when Jackie decided she wanted to start an organization to help women living with heart disease, which often went unrecognized, leading to serious consequences. Under the leadership of co-founder and executive director, Nancy Loving, WomenHeart grew from a fledgling organization to one that can today highlight many accomplishments.  WomenHeart’s growth is a credit to the work of its committed Board of Directors, Scientific Advisory Council, volunteers, staff, and corporate partners who spend countless hours advancing awareness of women’s heart health. Womenheart
