Reclaiming Space-Regaining Health

Abstract

This paper documents the experiences of Two-Spirit people, both within society generally and in the context of health and health care. Findings of a national qualitative research study on gay, lesbian, bisexual, and Two-Spirit people's health care are reported with particular attention placed upon Two-Spirit people's notions of identity and community, the meaning of health, and the experience of health care barriers within and outside of Aboriginal communities. Currently, the body of academic research on health and health care access largely excludes gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgendered/transsexual people (glbt). The smaller growing body of research on glbt health has little reference to Two-Spirit people. This paper attempts to redress these glaring absences.
