Test, Link, Call: a simple premise with a powerful purpose

In 2021, the Foundation invested in a unique idea — Test, Link, Call, an innovative proof of concept project led by Dr Sofia Bartlett, the Interim Scientific Director Clinical Prevention Services at BCCDC.

Dr Bartlett had an idea about how to better support access to care and treatment for people with HCV who experience criminalization in BC, after speaking with healthcare providers working in BC Provincial Correctional Centres who told her how difficult it was for people living with HCV to connect to treatment after they are released. Many of these people experience inequities in accessing care due to systemic and structural barriers and social determinants of health, such as poverty, gender, and Indigeneity.
