A Gap Analysis in Therapeutic Services for Birthing Individuals with Perinatal Mental Health Disorders
This article calls attention to a gap in services to address the needs of birthing individuals diagnosed with perinatal mental health conditions (PMHs) in New York State (NYS). We analyzed secondary birth data and surveyed MSW programs in NYS. Results indicate a gap in the availability of masters-prepared social workers to provide care for pregnant persons and their partners.

Street-Based Social Work Praxis: An “Un-Manual” for Advancing Human Rights and Identifying Social Safety Net Failures With Youth of Color Experiencing Poverty
Street-based social work responds to the “social disaster” of U.S. youth of color experiencing poverty who fall through the cracks of existing social safety nets. Drawing from 17 years of feedback from youth clients about street-based service provision in university–community partnerships, the flexible street-based model uses several trauma-focused, strengths-based, and humanistic modalities to provide youth with a positive childhood experience a…

Action anthropology and public policy change: Lead poisoning in Syracuse, NY
In Syracuse, New York more than 10% of children are lead poisoned each year, a toxic exposure that lowers the children's ability to learn and increases risky behaviors in adolescence. African American children are affected at nearly twice the rate of White children. We describe a community-university collaboration to reduce childhood lead poisoning in Syracuse, and the effects these efforts have had on public policy to date. This paper documents …

Medicalisation has been one of the major conceptual and empirical interests in medical sociology since the late 1960s.A widely accepted definition is that medicalisation is the process whereby social problems come to be defined and treated as medical conditions.During its long history, the concept of medicalisation has passed through several phases of thought, and its influence on the concepts and ideas of medicine and health reflects broader cha…
Paid Leave and Maternal Depressive Symptoms After Childbirth: The Moderating Role of Perceived Fairness of the Division of Household Labor
We examined whether using paid leave is directly linked to employed mothers’ depressive symptoms. In addition, we examined the moderating effect of employed mothers’ perceived fairness of division of household labor (housework and childcare) on the above association. We collected data from 92 employed mothers who were eligible to take paid leave and returned to the workplace after childbirth in Upstate New York State area. Using hierarchical regr…
I Gotta Carry The Burden By Myself: Experiences of Peripartum Depression among Low-Income Mothers of Color
Despite prevalence estimates indicating that upwards to 38% of new mothers of color will experience perinatal depression, little research has been published that investigates how they cope with the stressors in their daily lives. This article presents the findings of semi-structured in-depth interviews with 30 low-income new mothers of color about parenting their children despite the burden of ongoing depression. Narrative analyses revealed three…

Lead is a major environmental toxin that presents numerous health consequences for children. Refugee children are at a risk of lead poisoning post-resettlement due to urban housing and environmental inequalities stemming from lack of funding, legislation, and advocacy. This article addresses lead exposure upon arrival and post-resettlement in 705 refugee children (age 0-16 years) attending a university clinic in Syracuse, NY, a city with a large …

Action Anthropology in a Free Clinic
In this article, we describe a mixed methods study in a free clinic for uninsured, impoverished, and medically vulnerable persons in Syracuse, New York. Our model, Community Action Research and Education, draws on Action Anthropology, as developed by Sol Tax, in which faculty, students, and community members work together to develop and conduct the research. The study includes a quantitative review of 600 patients' charts and two rounds of qualit…
Postpartum Depression and the Affordable Care Act: Recommendations for Social Work Educators
The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (ACA) mandates ongoing research on postpartum depression; however, very little research has been published in social work journals and in advanced-level textbooks on this topic. This article describes the problem of postpartum depression and argues that social work educators and researchers must pay greater attention to this issue in light of the ACA mandates, so that social workers can provide effec…

The participants in this study describe themselves as being addicted to the action of the streets and their narratives fit with the evolving framework of a behavioral addiction. There is currently no formal diagnosis for understanding the draw …

Controlling Blinding Trachoma in the Egyptian Delta: Integrating Clinical, Epidemiological and Anthropological Understandings
Trachoma is a leading cause of preventable blindness in the world. The disease is hyperendemic in rural Egypt, where more than 75% of children show signs of having had at least one episode of infectious trachoma during the first year of life. Earlier anthropological and epidemiological observations suggested that trachoma prevalence would decrease if children had their faces washed with soap and water at least once each day. We conducted a commun…
Marriage Promotion and Missing Men: African American Women in a Demographic Double Bind
Since 1996, state legislators, members of the U.S. Congress, and more recently President George W. Bush, have called for the protection of monogamous, heterosexual marriage and the promotion of marriage among poor women. The thrust of this policy making is directed at African American families, among which female headship doubled between 1965 and 1990. This doubling is temporally associated with enacting the legislation directed toward the War on…

Buying safety: The economics of reproductive risk and abortion in Egypt
This article examines the economics of abortion safety in Egypt. Under Egyptian law induced abortion is restricted to cases in which two physicians certify that the pregnancy presents a danger to the health or life of the mother. Despite this legal restriction, the available data indicate that abortion is quite widely practiced. Multifaceted strands of legal, religious, economic, and health care policy influence both discourse about and access to…

Television Minidramas: Social Marketing and Evaluation in Egypt
Television has been extensively used to communicate health messages over a decade in Egypt. Viewers of the evening soap operas have been seeing six commercials for family planning, oral rehydration solution (ORS), and immunizations. People of all social classes can sing the jingles of the most popular ads. The producers of these health spots use increasingly sophisticated story lines, settings, and characters representing rural peasants, played b…

Sociocultural aspects of blindness in an Egyptian delta hamlet: Visual impairment vs. visual disability
Through ophthalmological exams, structured interviews and participant observation, this study examines the experience of blindness in rural Egypt, and finds that villagers' subjective assessments of their vision differ substantially from ophthalmic measurements of their vision. Individuals with profound visual loss remain independent in their daily activities and contribute to their families' subsistence. While they may agree that they have "weak…

Judging the Other: Responding to Traditional Female Genital Surgeries
Western feminists, physicians, and ethicists condemn the traditional\ngenital surgeries performed on women in some non-Western cultures. But coming\nto moral judgment is not the end of the story; we must also decide what to do\nabout our judgments. We must learn to work respectfully with, not\nindependently of, local resources for cultural self-examination and\nchange....Perhaps the most important rationale for female circumcision is that\nbecaus…
