Sexual assault against transgender (trans) persons is a complex public health issue requiring the coordinated effort of multiple sectors to address. In response to a global call to improve health equity for persons of diverse gender identities, leaders across health and social service sectors need to enhance collaboration to champion trans-affirming care for sexual assault survivors. In collaboration with Egale Canada Human Rights Trust and the Ontario Network of Sexual Assault/Domestic Violence Treatment Centres, we have undertaken the development of an intersectoral network to connect trans-positive community organizations with hospital-based violence treatment centres to improve support services for trans survivors across Ontario. Guided by the Lifecycle Model for network development outlined by the National Collaborating Centre for Methods and Tools, we describe our approach to planning the intersectoral network, including key insights learned thus far and the potential of the network moving forward.
对跨性别者的性侵犯是一个复杂的公共卫生问题，需要多个部门共同努力加以解决。为响应全球改善不同性别认同者健康公平性的呼吁，卫生和社会服务部门的领导者需要加强合作，为性侵犯幸存者提供支持跨性别者的护理。我们与加拿大伊盖尔人权信托基金和安大略省性侵犯/家庭暴力治疗中心网络合作，开展了一个跨部门网络的建设，将支持跨性别者的社区组织与医院的暴力治疗中心联系起来，以改善安大略省为跨性别幸存者提供的支持服务。在国家方法与工具协作中心概述的网络发展生命周期模型的指导下，我们描述了规划跨部门网络的方法，包括迄今为止获得的关键见解以及该网络未来的潜力。
