Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

This chapter will provide an overview of the health care system in Canada and the degree to which lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer (LGBT) people are recognized therein. Utilizing a critical structural social work perspective, the internationally renowned health promotion, population health and the associated Sex and Gender-Based Analysis (SGBA) Canada employs as national health models will be excavated to reveal a non-commitment to the LGBT populations. The lack of LGBT presence at the infrastructural level symbolizes the lack of recognition extended to these communities. An illness-based focus on HIV/AIDS contradicts the population health approach ignoring broader LGBT health issues, needs and concerns. The ripple effect of this is the lack of LGBT-specific health policies, funding, programs and services. There has been a long history of programmatic funding that isn’t core leaving LGBT communities in a constant state of vulnerability. Specific to the Canadian social work discipline itself, there is an inconsistency of recognition of ‘sexual orientation’ within professional principles, ethics and standards of practice and complete absence of ‘gender identity’. The chapter will conclude by promoting the Social Determinants of Health as a model inclusive of LGBT people.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
