Dr. Murdoch Leeies<\/strong>‘ team at University of Manitoba is forming a 2SLGBTQIA+ patient\/family advisory team<\/strong> and is looking for interested people who have been involved with the organ donation or transplantation system. If you are a 2SLGBTQIA+ identifying person who has been a living organ donor, a solid organ transplant recipient or the substitute-decision maker or caregiver of a 2SLGBTQIA+ person who was considered for donation after death (whether they did or did not donate) then they hope you will consider registering your interest to participate.<\/p>\n

The team hopes that your engagement will help them to design research as well as policies that can improve equity for 2SLGBTQIA+ people in our health system. We greatly value your participation.<\/p>\n<\/div>
