As the Collaborative Family Healthcare Association (CFHA) has increased its focus on justice, diversity, and inclusion in integrated care delivery, it is increasingly evident that widespread upstream transformation is needed to ensure that the integrated care workforce is appropriately prepared to deliver equitable care. This column highlights the need for systemic change in admissions standards, integrated care curricula, student mentorship/sponsorship, and faculty development within higher education in order to support the success of Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC) students and increase antiracist approaches among health care professionals. CFHA members working in, or in collaboration with, academia are uniquely poised to influence higher education systems to promote diversity, inclusion, and antiracism among future integrated health professionals.

Background: Tuberculosis (TB) is a leading cause of death worldwide with over 90% of reported cases occurring in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). Pre-treatment loss to follow-up (PTLFU) is a key contributor to TB mortality and infection transmission.
Objectives: We performed a scoping review to map available evidence on interventions to reduce PTLFU in adults with pulmonary TB, identify gaps in existing knowledge, and develop a conceptual framework to guide intervention implementation.

Background: Early interventions for young children with autism have been shown to enhance developmental outcomes. However, opportunities for targeted interventions in autism, both in care and preschool, are often lacking, particularly in immigrant communities. The early start denver model (ESDM) stands as one of the most well-established intervention models, including improvement in core developmental domains and reduction of maladaptive behaviours, also delivered in preschool settings.
