The interplay of technological innovation, human capital and civil liberties in advancing economic complexity and sustainable growth
“An extra layer of pressure to be my best self”
Despite the importance of respectful pregnancy care, birthing people experience high rates of mistreatment in clinical settings in the United States. In light of persistent racialized maternal and infant health inequities, doula care is increasingly promoted as an intervention. Limited research has examined healthcare providers’ experiences with doulas. As part of an evaluation of community doula programs in San Francisco, California, we intervie…
Barriers and Facilitators to the Implementation of a Community Doula Program for Black and Pacific Islander Pregnant People in San Francisco

Black Women's Lived Experiences of Abortion
In this study, we aim to understand abortion in the context of structural racism and reproductive injustice. We designed this study using Reproductive Justice and Public Health Critical Race Praxis frameworks.

The primary identified theme is that "choice" around abortion is a privilege that is not always available to Blac…

This case study explores two different approaches for compensating doulas (contractor versus hourly employment with benefits) utilized by Sister…
When I think of mental healthcare, I think of no care.” Mental Health Services as a Vital Component of Prenatal Care for Black Women
Evidence exists supporting group prenatal care as a tool for mitigation of perinatal health disparities among Black women. There is also a large body of data describing the disproportionate burden of mental health needs among Black women. The rich data we present here from Black women on their desire for the integration of these two needs fits well into the parallel conversation occurring in the literature. To our knowledge, this is the first stu…
Long‐Acting Reversible Contraceptives for Incarcerated Women
It is safe and feasible to provide LARC methods to incarcerated women. Correctional facilities should consider increasing access to all available contraceptives, including LARC methods, in a noncoercive manner as a strategy to reduce reproductive health disparities among marginalized women at high risk of unplanned pregnancies
