Being in solidarity must always extend beyond words, statements and commitments. As we mark National #IndigenousHistoryMonth, we're focused on listening to the truth, and acting on oppression and injustices in support of #IndigenousHealth. Our full statement: www.allianceon.org/news/Allianc...

The courage to do things in ways that are different from what’s “always been done” is an essential ingredient for making health and social care more connected and integrated — and accessible to the people most in need of team-based care. #Alliance2025
June 5, 2025 at 6:23 PM
We’re joined by Dr. Notisha Massaquoi, Dr. Dominik Nowak, and Jennifer Quinlan.

How does being community-driven impact the shape of integrated care? Let’s count the ways: surfacing on the ground knowledge + experience; culturally relevant; meaningful accountability and governance. #Alliance2025

Thorncliffe Park Community Hub in Toronto is a new example of what’s possible when the focus is on trust and building relationships between organizations and staff who serve the same populations. #Alliance2025
June 5, 2025 at 5:09 PM
We’re in the final round of workshops and learning sessions at #Alliance2025! Question: what are the targeted actions we can do systemically to create the larger impacts for integrated health and social care?
June 5, 2025 at 4:54 PM
.@policingblack (Robyn Maynard): Using a Public Health approach, we must find alternatives to policing and incarceration, create a culture of proximity of life to dislodge systemic racism and the proximity to death they impose on Black, Indigenous, 2SLGBTQIA + other marginalized ppl. #Alliance2025
June 5, 2025 at 1:15 PM
To start Day 2 of our conference, @policingblack (Robyn Maynard) is w/ us for a keynote on the crisis facing marginalized people: our sense of health and wellbeing must include people being free and safe from state-sanctioned violence, systemic racism and structural abandonment. #Alliance2025
June 5, 2025 at 12:58 PM
We’re in afternoon learning sessions on Day 1, and focused on Strategic Approaches to Embedding Equity in Community Health Centres. One of the keys? Don’t get stuck on perfection. Get practical. Get commitments from leadership, and then engaged w/ staff to get the work started. #Alliance2025
June 4, 2025 at 7:59 PM
We’re deep into plenary 2, the State and Future of Health Equity. Panelist Rachel Décoste: Health orgs must move beyond box checking and strive to INCLUDE EVERY VOICE. We need to revisit values and mission statements so they aren’t just words, and can be put into meaningful action. #Alliance2025
June 4, 2025 at 6:15 PM
We’re into the first set of learning sessions and workshops at #Alliance2025, our annual primary health care conference. Health Equity Priorities session is spotlighting gender-affirming care in Kingston + 2SLGBTQ+ #refugeehealth in the GTA.
June 4, 2025 at 3:28 PM
How can we get from the trauma and oppression of colonization, residential schools, 60s scoop, to culturally affirming care + healing people and communities? Time and patience. There is no magic formula that undoes 500 years of trauma. #Alliance2025
June 4, 2025 at 1:32 PM
Lisa Boivin: Indigenous health is often approached through a deficit lens of colonization… individuals become “clinical problems to be solved” — access to culturally affirming care is how we can address this. #Alliance2025
June 4, 2025 at 1:26 PM
We are UNDERWAY at #Alliance2025 w/ plenary speaker Lisa Boivin, The Ceremony of Image Making:
Piecing Together
Meaningful research/clinical relationships.
June 4, 2025 at 1:14 PM
Alliance members have unanimously passed a resolution calling for expansion and increased funding for universal, no-cost gender-affirming care across the entire health system. #Alliance2025 #2SLGBTQhealth #ONhealth
