Not Just “A Roof over Your Head”: The Meaning of Healthy Housing for People Living with HIVFootnote
^✠This article is dedicated to the memory of LaVerne Monette, co-investigator with the Positive Spaces, Healthy Places (PSHP) research project, who passed away on December 1, 2010. Responsible for the Aboriginal arm of the study, she played a key role in developing the larger study. She brought to our team her life experiences as an Aboriginal woman and her passion to help Aboriginal people living with and at risk of HIV. She understood the critical role of housing in health and quality of life, and was a strong advocate for research to identify the housing needs of Aboriginal people in Ontario and for policy change that will lead to safe, stable housing for all.
