Droit devant: A Project for More Inclusive Health Care

Droit devant is a pan-Canadian project led by the Community-Based Research Centre (CBRC), in collaboration with three community partner organizations: Chroma (New Brunswick), Queer and Trans Health Collective (Alberta), and Les 3 sex* (Quebec).

Running until 2027, this project brings together 2S/LGBTQIA+ communities, community organizations, and health care providers around a shared goal: to promote more equitable access to gender-affirming care, as well as sexual and reproductive health services that are responsive to the realities and needs of trans and non-binary people.

More specifically, Droit devant aims to improve access to inclusive, affirming, and accessible care by supporting health services that recognize and address the diverse experiences, needs, and realities of trans and non-binary communities.

Droit devant is grounded in a collective approach where the people most affected actively participate in the reflection process and in the development of resources. They are not only at the heart of the project; they also help shape interventions that genuinely respond to the needs of their communities.

In Quebec, an incubator committee made up of fifteen participants supports the Les 3 sex* team throughout the project. The committee helps identify the health-related needs of queer communities and contributes to the development of resources tailored to those needs.

Resources developed for communities

As part of the project, Les 3 sex* is developing two complementary resources:

  • A community information tool designed to improve access to sexual health, reproductive health, and gender-affirming care services available in Quebec for trans and non-binary people aged 14 and older.
  • A training program for health care professionals aimed at promoting inclusive and affirming practices, improving responses to the realities of trans and non-binary people, and reducing systemic biases and barriers within health care settings.
