Did you know syphilis is alarmingly on the rise in Alberta? Join us as we sit down with Catherine Broomefield, the Executive Director of HIV Edmonton, to shed light on this pressing public health issue. We journey into the heart of HIV Edmonton, an organization committed to providing critical support and services for individuals living with or at risk of HIV/AIDS. Uncover how they are navigating the complex landscape of sexually transmitted infections, particularly syphilis, and the steps they're taking to dismantle the deep-seated stigma and biases that often deter people from seeking help.
The COVID-19 pandemic has reshaped the world and its effects on public health outreach are significant. As we continue our conversation with Catherine, we navigate the challenges and adaptations this new landscape has necessitated. We explore how most of HIV Edmonton's outreach has moved into the virtual space, and the crucial role of employers in providing health resources for their employees. We also discuss the struggle of raising awareness about HIV Edmonton's invaluable services amidst ongoing HIV stigma, and the hurdles faced by the Taste for Life national fundraiser in securing restaurant partnerships. Tune in, enrich your understanding, and join the conversation as we confront the ongoing fight against HIV stigma.
