Dr. Chris Steingart trained at the University of Calgary where he received certification in Internal Medicine in 1995. After moving back to Ontario in 2002, Dr. Steingart accepted the position of Head of Infection Prevention and Control at Grand River and St. Mary’s Hospitals. During this time, Dr. Steingart began seeing more HIV and Hepatitis C patients. Seeing the need for more specialized care for the complex medical and psycho-social needs of his patients, Dr. Steingart decided to leave the hospital setting and in 2007, Dr. Steingart created the province’s first charitable Hepatitis C service organization, Sanguen Health Centre. With a dedicated team of nurses, social support workers, outreach workers, and peer support workers, Dr. Steingart sees the region’s most marginalized patients offering expert medical, social, and psychological support.

Initially she partnered as a Public Health Nurse with the Sanguen Van Team for several years, so the move to work as an Outreach Nurse with Sanguen was the next logical step in her nursing career.

Kathy works very much through a harm reduction lens and treats clients with the care, compassion and respect they deserve. She works hard to break down barriers that individuals experience in order to improve access to health care.

Kathy has been working to support the Mobile Health Bus and is expanding opportunities to connect with folks around testing and treatment for Hepatitis C.  

When Kathy is not at work you will likely find her on the golf course or spending time with her family.

Jamie has a long history in HIV/HCV, harm reduction and activism work. Jamie got into HIV work in the late 90’s by working in rural Kenya with women and AIDS orphans, which began the start of over 15 years of HIV/HCV, harm reduction and addictions work in both East Africa and the BC Interior. Jamie returned to Guelph in the summer of 2018.

Jamie is passionate about harm reduction; LGBTQ2I; anti-oppression & anti-racism work; class analysis; feminism; narrative therapy; trauma based work and somatic body based healing. 

Jamie sees harm reduction as a paradigm for operating in the world, and a practice to be mindful of inner bias and old, outdated conditioning. Meeting people where they are at is a value for every moment in life. 

Jamie devoutly believes in the power of relationship based work; where relationship is the bridge to better health, access to services and a stronger, more cohesive community.

Jenn has gained much knowledge in her time with Sanguen but the one belief that never changed but grew stronger is that EVERYONE deserves to be treated with love and respect no matter what. 

She values all aspects of her duties but her greatest reward is all the wonderful people she has met and have helped her grow into a better person. She believes ‘Share the Love’ needs to spread more in the world.    

She brings a smile and spunk to every place she goes just wanting all to be happy.  At home she is a furmumma to her dog Buttons and loves to create many things with her resin hobby.
