Introduction: LGBTQI+ migrants are at greater risk of facing health issues, including mental health issues, especially since the arrival of COVID-19. Furthermore, they face many barriers to accessing care in Quebec. It is in this context that Clinic Mauve was implemented, which aims to remove these barriers by offering medical and psychosocial care in an integrated care setting to LGBTQI+ migrants in Montreal.
Purpose Of Research: The purpose of this article is to identify the benefits and challenges of a model like the Clinic Mauve in addressing the psychosocial needs of LGBTQI+ migrant individuals.
Results: The analysis shows that the Clinic Mauve model, because of its approaches is able to remove some of the barriers to accessing care for LGBTQI+ migrants and to allow for a certain degree of empowerment of these populations. However, some challenges have been identified, which are mainly due to the lack of resources and organizational constraints.
Conclusions: The article concludes that providing psychosocial care in an integrated care setting addresses some of the barriers to accessing care faced by LGBTQI+ migrants.

The objective of this communication is to outline the key elements required to train health care providers in various occupations (medicine, psychology, dentistry, nursing, social work, nutrition, physiotherapy, occupational therapy, chemistry, pharmacy, and obstetrics, including midwifery, among others) to address child sexual abuse (CSA) and develop care protocols grounded on evidence-based practices, as well as provide resources to optimize both processes. Training on child and adolescent sexual abuse is an essential component of facing this major challenge in Latin America and allowing health care personnel to fulfill their role of safeguarding the security and well-being of children and adolescents. Developing protocols helps health care staff define the roles and responsibilities of individual members, summarize potential red flags of CSA, and describe strategies to best identify and address the health and safety needs of patients and their families, which should include a trauma-informed approach.
