Background

QXposure originated from a partnership between Associated Youth Services of Peel, the Peel HIV/AIDS Network (PHAN) and the East Mississauga CHC. QX set out with the intention to create healthy, safe, and proud spaces for Queer and Trans people; thereby reducing barriers and improving access to health and social services. QX holds principles of anti-racism and anti-oppression in its work. QX has since developed direct services, community consultations, an annual Pride March in Mississauga and research (which can be found by clicking here).

Purpose

To reduce social exclusion and access barriers amongst Queer and Trans communities and Queer and Trans individuals, and raising awareness to the unique determinants of health faced by Queer and Trans individuals through an anti-racist and anti-oppressive approach.

Current Activities

• Monthly drop-in for Queer and Trans people 18+
• Monthly Parents and Friends of Lesbians and Gays (PFLAG Peel Chapter) group
• Counseling (family and individual)
• Information and referrals to other community and health services
