A Lakehead University professor is receiving $10,000 from Associated Medical Services (AMS) Healthcare to explore the work of the Hamilton YWCA in Indigenous hospitals, sanatoria, and residential schools in Canada during the 20th century.
The Government of Canada recently announced a new investment of more than $151 million to support 188 new and renewed Canada Research Chairs, including the renewal of one of Lakehead University’s CRCs.
The program will be evaluated by principal investigator, Dr. Erin Pearson, Associate Professor in Kinesiology, who will measure health outcomes and impact on the community.
