Abstract
LGBTQI+ migrants are at greater risk of facing health issues, including mental health issues, especially since the arrival of COVID-19. Furthermore, they face many barriers to accessing care in Quebec. It is in this context that Clinic Mauve was implemented, which aims to remove these barriers by offering medical and psychosocial care in an integrated care setting to LGBTQI+ migrants in Montreal. The purpose of this article is to identify the benefits and challenges of a model like the Clinic Mauve in addressing the psychosocial needs of LGBTQI+ migrant individuals. The analysis shows that the Clinic Mauve model, because of its approaches is able to remove some of the barriers to accessing care for LGBTQI+ migrants and to allow for a certain degree of empowerment of these populations. However, some challenges have been identified, which are mainly due to the lack of resources and organizational constraints. The article concludes that providing psychosocial care in an integrated care setting addresses some of the barriers to accessing care faced by LGBTQI+ migrants.
