Community-centered Care in the Justice System
‘No lu’au for baby's 1st birthday’
INTRODUCTION: The COVID-19 pandemic had deleterious effects across healthcare. People who gave birth during this time experienced increases in mental health challenges compared to their non-pandemic counterparts. Given Hawai'i's geographical location, people who gave birth there may have experienced additional impacts not experienced on the US mainland. The purpose of this study was to investigate experiences of becoming a mother in Hawai'i durin…
Beyond Hardship
Economic hardship and social context are known to shape family processes, yet their influence may differ across cultural groups. We conducted a comparative, exploratory analysis of Latino and non-Latino white fathers to examine how financial insecurity and neighborhood-based social support are associated with paternal well-being and youth behavioral outcomes. Using data from the Fragile Families and Child Wellbeing Study ( N = 124 fathers in U.S.…

“Gutting It Out” Does Not Work
College student mental health issues negatively impact academic performance. Over half of college students in the U.S. report a mental health issue, with 60% reporting one at the two-year mark. Even when aware of such mental health issues, students are still hesitant to seek treatment. As such, investigating perceptions of mental health time off may illuminate perceived usefulness of such policies as well as potential processes for defining and i…
Power Through Anonymity
In 2018, Dr. Christine Blasey-Ford's accusations of sexual assault against Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh and sexual assault convictions of Hollywood mogul Harvey Weinstein prompted questioning of why sexual assault victims do not report incidents of sexual violence to law enforcement. A hashtag movement, #whyididntreport was started wherein people began sharing their stories of sexual violence and the reasons they didn’t report. Even thou…

The Tattoo Environment as a Therapeutic Healing Space for Sexual Assault Survivors
The view of tattoos and the tattooed is emerging from a position of deviance and criminology to a potential practice for restoration and healing. Tattooing is emerging as a process through which survivors of sexual trauma can reclaim bodily autonomy after experiencing violation. Additionally, the opportunity for the tattooing environment to be a healing space is emerging. Through the application of the theory of supportive care environments, this…
Women are the thread
Becoming a mother can simultaneously be a shared experience while having cultural distinctions. Indigenous motherhood, for example, has been heavily influenced by colonisation, medicalisation and Western imperialism. Historical and generational trauma has contributed to shifts in Indigenous practices surrounding becoming a mother and a disconnection from traditional birthing practices that has impacted maternal mental health. Nevertheless, recove…
A review of the empirical measures on becoming a mother and their relevance to the American Indian/Native Alaskan mother
American Indian/Alaska Native (AI/NA) mothers are at an increased risk for postpartum mental health disorders. One risk factor for developing a disorder is maladaptive beliefs about becoming a mother (BAM). The maternal role transition is measured using scales that often assess the risk of developing postpartum depression (PPD). AI/AN women have had their motherhood historically marginalized through forced sterilizations and the removal of their …
American Indian Motherhood and Historical Trauma
The subthemes illuminate the intersection of historical trauma and the perinatal experience, continued colonization of mothering, and the resilience of tribal culture during the postpartum period. Implications include advocacy for increasing culturally derived perinatal interventions, increased healthcare coverage of culturally appropriate birthing practices, and future research evaluating the correlation between historical trauma and maternal me…
Beyond bath bombs
Postpartum depression is a significant public health concern due to the physical, emotional, economic, and life course outcomes. Postpartum depression (PPD) can have multiple impacts on the mother, child development, and family. PPD severity is also influenced by social support, including partner support. Per family systems theory, each family member is not an isolated individual, but rather subject to the functioning of the family unit. Extant r…

Living in Intimate Partner Violence Shelters
Intimate partner violence (IPV) shelters are a critical resource for women experiencing IPV. Shelters can provide survivors a safe location separated from their partners to allow them to seek assistance and make choices about the future of their relationship. IPV shelters have been shown to be effective at giving women the sense of security they need as well as improving the health of women who chose to reside in shelter. Whereas the research on …
Safety for American Indian Women
American Indian/Native American (AI/NA) women are disproportionately affected by intimate partner violence (IPV). The Violence Against Women Reauthorization Act (VAWA) of 2013 included new provisions under the Title IX Safety for Indian Women. This act created funding for the implementation of modern criminal justice structures allowing tribal governments to prosecute non-Indian perpetrators. Although this piece of legislation is meant to address…
Cathartic Ink
Prior research indicates that motivations for obtaining tattoos are generally to signify philosophical positions, identity formation, life transitions and group membership. However, questions remain around the generalizability of these motivations for special populations. The current study advances the extant literature by qualitatively examining a group of self-identified survivors of sexual violence and their motivations for obtaining tattoos. …
I keep it to myself”
Postpartum depression (PPD) is a significant public health concern due to the physical, emotional, economic, and life course outcomes. Rates of PPD are significantly higher for marginalised populations and can impact low-income, minority, and/or immigrant women differently when compared to white middle-class women. Commonly studied negative effects of PPD include poor health outcomes, mother-child bonding challenges, and negative child educationa…
Developing networks in disempowered communities
This study aims to present an evaluation and the process steps of a community‐based initiative (CBI) consisting of a group of organizations that work to enhance the lives of boys and men of colour. Using a participatory research model, the researchers collaborated with 14 community stakeholders to develop the questions during two data collection periods and reviewed the reports for accuracy. The findings were separated into two broad categories. …
