While the HOPE Centre has a relatively small team supporting it's daily operations, our work in research and development is supported by our members, steering committee, advisory board, and researchers. These interdisciplinary teams are made up of faculty, community members, and volunteers committed to improving the health of sexual and gender minority people, with a special focus on the role of intersectional identities and experiences.

Community-centered, community-supported

Our Steering Committee

The HOPE Centre’s Steering Committee is led by a group of community members who are responsible for directing the Centre’s goals and activities. Meetings are held twice a month to ensure the Centre’s continued operation, growth and development. The responsibilities of the committee are: developing the Centre’s budget/work plan/annual report, reviewing nominees, appointing members, and approving any publications submitted through the Centre.
