To:

Greetings,

apologies for cross-posting! feel free to share!

Today (Sept 20th) is the last day to participate in Our Health: Canada-Wide 2SLGBTQQIA+ Community Study. This work is the result of a collaboration of CBRC, Egale Canada, The Enchanté Network and 2 Spirits in Motion Society, and we are looking at the current state of health among people in our communities. We especially want to hear from community members who are living with chronic health conditions. We are using an expansive understanding of chronic health, to ensure that people living with conditions that are under-represented or less understood can feel included in this work. Living with chronic pain? A cancer survivor? Have a mental health condition? We want to hear from you.

In addition to the survey, we want to know how many 2SLGBTQQIA+ people in Canada contracted COVID-19. Participants have the option of taking a COVID-19 antibody test that we will mail to your home or any address of your choosing. It’s a quick and simple finger prick test where you provide a few drops of blood and then mail the sample back to us (in a pre-paid envelope that we will provide to you). We want you to take the test regardless of whether or not you were diagnosed with COVID-19 or have been vaccinated.

To participate, and to learn more, visit:

All participants will receive a small honorarium (paid by CBRC through a platform called Plooto). If you participate in the DBS portion, you'll receive an additional honorarium.

It's been an honour to work on this project as part of my work at CBRC - thank you so much for receiving this, and for your support!

with care,

Anu Radha Verma

~ Respectfully acknowledging that CBRC is privileged to work on the traditional unceded territories of the Musqueam, Squamish, and Tsleil-Waututh peoples, and that our work extends beyond the lands of these nations.

I work, organize, love and struggle on the Treaty and Traditional Territories of the Mississaugas of the Credit. The areas currently known as Toronto and Peel are traditional Haundenosaunee, Anishnaabeg, Huron-Wendat and Chippewa lands. Treaties 13, 14, 19, 22 and 23 are those I have a responsibility to, but as a settler born here to immigrant parents (who arrived by choice), challenging settler colonialism means more than naming or knowing - my work at CBRC, and beyond it, centers honouring Indigenous sovereignty on this territory and beyond.
