Am I the Only One Who Feels Like This?”
In the United States, abortion is safe and common, but highly stigmatized and frequently targeted by legislation that aims to restrict access. Numerous obstacles impede access to abortion care, including logistical barriers like cost and transportation, limited clinic availability, and state-mandated waiting periods. Accurate abortion information can also be hard to access. To overcome these barriers, many people seeking abortion turn to anonymou…

“It’s Just Constantly Having to Make a Ton of Decisions That Other People Take for Granted”
As more queer cisgender women and gender-expansive individuals become parents, research must consider current barriers to family formation. This study used a modified grounded theory approach to conduct 22 semi-structured interviews aimed at understanding the role of queer identity in pregnancy desires and decisions among individuals assigned female at birth (AFAB) who identify as queer. Numerous individual, relationship, and structural factors i…
Real-Time Effects of Payer Restrictions on Reproductive Healthcare
Findings from this study underscore the centrality of cost barriers and third-party payer restrictions to stymying reproductive health access in the United States. Results may contribute to the growing evidence base and building political momentum focused on repealing the Hyde Amendment
The Health System Just Wasn't Built for Us”
Present as a partner and a parent
Supportive father involvement during pregnancy can positively impact maternal and child outcomes. Father participation in prenatal care is increasing, yet little research exists to understand how mothers and fathers experience father participation in prenatal care and their preferences for father participation. We interviewed expectant first‐time mothers ( N = 22) and fathers ( N = 20) to learn about fathers’ participation in prenatal care, perce…
Advancing Reproductive Justice to Close the Health Gap
Reproductive justice is an intersectional social movement, theory, and praxis well aligned with social work's mission and values. Yet, advancing reproductive justice-the right to have children, to not have children, to parent with safety and dignity, and to sexual and bodily autonomy-has not been a signature area of scholarship and practice for the field. This article argues that it is critical for social work to advance reproductive justice to t…
Sexual Minority Women and Contraceptive Use
Compared with their heterosexual peers, sexual minority women (SMW; e.g., queer, bisexual, lesbian, pansexual) have an elevated risk for unintended pregnancy. A team of social science and clinical researchers qualitatively documented the multilevel pathways leading to this disparity, particularly the contexts of contraceptive use. From August 2017 to April 2018, we conducted focus groups and interviews with young adult cisgender SMW in 3 cities: …
Social Support and Caregiver Distress
More complex theoretical models that incorporate common measures to represent the linkages between types of stressor, types of support, and their interactions are needed to foster replicability and generalizability of research results
