NC-TAC Webinar: Navigating Sexual and Reproductive Health Needs – Pregnancy Care and the Criminal Legal System
This is the first in a two-part series focused on the sexual and reproductive health needs of women and others assigned female at birth. We will describe trends for incarceration and criminal legal involvement during pregnancy, including the intersection of perinatal incarceration and substance use disorders, and highlight pregnancy and birth disparities that exist for this population. We will discuss experiences accessing pregnancy care during incarceration and in the community, and identify ways that community service providers can support clients and patients in navigating challenges to sexual and reproductive health equity.
