HERHealth: Transforming Health for Women & Girls at Risk

HERHealth is a podcast dedicated to empowering women, girls, and gender-diverse people to take charge of their health and well-being. Hosted by Dr. Nicole Letourneau, Scientific Director of AVA, this podcast explores the critical health challenges faced by those at risk or affected by violence and adversity.

Each episode delves into the latest research, real-life stories, and innovative solutions that drive meaningful change in community health and social services. As one of thirteen Health Research Training Platforms funded by the CIHR Institute of Human Development, Child and Youth Health, AVA is committed to breaking cycles of adversity and improving health outcomes across generations.

Despite progress since the tragic events at École Polytechnique in 1989, gender-based violence and family violence continue to impact the well-being of women and girls across Canada. HERHealth shines a light on these pressing issues, fostering dialogue, advocacy, and action to create lasting change.

Join us as we connect with experts, advocates, and those with lived experiences to explore pathways toward a healthier, more equitable future.
