Structures of survival
Criminal legal system (CLS) involvement intersects syndemically with HIV, mental illness, substance use, and exposure to violence. Mass incarceration remains both a cause and consequence of racialized health inequities in the U.S. The post-release period is particularly vulnerable for people living with HIV (PLWH) who experience CLS involvement, underscoring the need for care models attuned to their structural and psychosocial contexts. This stud…
Doing what I need to do
Our findings indicate that in the context of COVID-19 stay-at-home orders BWLWH were moderately impacted, shared concerns and mental health symptoms, and voiced the shortfalls of medical providers. Further, BWLWH exhibited resilience with regard to medication adherence and the use of adaptive coping strategies while echoing the need for additional resources and structural interventions
A commentary on forging a path for CHANGE
Training programs focused on developing the next generation of scholars with expertise in HIV and mental health are crucial for advancing health equity and cultivating a diverse workforce by supporting individuals with lived experience and a strong commitment to serving underserved communities. However, disparities persist in the workforce, particularly in the inclusion of professionals typically underrepresented in research. The aim of this comm…
Hurricane Vulnerability and Constrained Choices among Mobile Home Park Residents in South Florida
South Florida experiences some of the highest coastal hurricane vulnerability in the United States. Mobile home communities in south Florida are particularly vulnerable to hurricanes due to the weaker structural integrity of the home or land and a mix of structural and sociodemographic factors. A mixed-methods study was conducted to assess hurricane risk perceptions, experiences, and decision-making among permanent mobile home park (MHP) resident…
Community-Based Work and Participatory Budgeting
Participatory budgeting (PB) works best if this activity is viewed to be part of a trend that is referred to as community-based work. But this connection is not often made. As a result, many PB projects tend to drift away from their home communities. Although working in communities is thought to be a very practical endeavor, philosophy should not be ignored, particularly if the aim is to be community-based. Some examples are supplied in this pape…
Piloting a Flexible Solicited Diary Study With Marginalized Latina Women During the Covid-19 Pandemic
Little is known about the experiences of minority stress among Latina women who have sex with both women and men (WSWM), a sexual and gender minority group situated at the intersection of multiple marginalized identities. The current article presents an exploratory study aimed at addressing this knowledge gap. The research utilized a flexible diary-interview method (DIM) to investigate stress-related experiences among Mexican American WSWM residi…
Women of Color’s Reproductive Perils Reproduced
Last year, women detained at a Georgia ICE detention center accused a doctor of conducting various hysterectomies that were unwanted or without consent. These allegations echo past sterilization abuses on women of color and challenge us to recall some historical accounts of women's sterilization in Black and Brown communities in America, including eugenics programs targeting poor women of color. When particularly examining the women's reproductiv…
Domestic Violence During a Global Pandemic
This study uses official data from Guatemala’s Departamento de Atencion a la Victima (Victim Attention Department), a specialized unit in Guatemala’s National Civil Police, to assess the long-term impacts of a government mandated lockdown and reopening on domestic violence. It also considers how the lockdown and reopening impacted domestic violence across administrative departments in the country. Our findings suggest that combined, daily cases o…
Harvesting Health Knowledge
South Florida agricultural regions, home to Latinx immigrant farmworkers, report higher rates of late-stage breast cancer diagnosis than national, state, and county-level averages. We conducted a community-based qualitative study on the needs, health knowledge gaps, barriers to breast cancer screening, and the role of community health workers (CHWs) in supporting the community's access to early detection services. We conducted three CHW focus gro…
