“…Historically, there has been an erasure of systematically minoritized women regarding sexual and reproductive health within policy, legislation, equitable research methods, and healthcare practices (Brown et al, 2021; Marchevsky, 2021). Women of color have practices such as forced (Brown et al, 2021; Marchevsky, 2021) or “soft” (Winters & McLaughlin, 2020) sterilization in the form of total hysterectomies or long-acting reversible contraceptives such as intrauterine devices imposed without full informed consent or participation.…”

As such, the historical mistrust of researchers that often exists among underserved childbearing populations is not unfounded.…”

Background: Historically, childbearing women from diverse and systematically hard-to-reach populations have been excluded from nursing research. This practice limits the generalizability of findings. Maximizing research strategies to meet the unique needs of these populations must be a priority. Objectives:The aim of this study was to provide methodological context for the comprehensive application of reproductive justice strategies to guide research methods and promote engagement of underrepresented childbearing women while decreasing systemic bias. Methods:In this article, we use a reproductive justice lens to characterize and define strategies for enhancing ethical and equitable engagement in research involving childbearing women who are often systematically underrepresented using a case study approach. Using a specific case study exemplar, the core tenets of reproductive justice are outlined and affirm the need to advance research strategies that create ethical engagement of diverse populations, transform oppressive social structures, and shift research paradigms so research objectives intentionally highlight the strengths and resiliency inherent to the targeted communities.Results: We begin by describing parallels between the tenets of reproductive justice and the ethical principles of research (i.e., respect for persons, beneficence, and justice). We then apply these tenets to conceptualization, implementation (recruitment, data management, and retention), and dissemination of research conducted with childbearing women from diverse backgrounds who are systemically underrepresented. We highlight our successful research strategies from our case study example of women with histories of incarceration.Discussion: To date, outcomes from our research indicate the need for multilevel strategies with a focus on respectful, inclusive participant and key community partner engagement; the time investment in local communities to promote equitable collaboration; encouragement of the patient's autonomous right to self-determination; and mitigation of power imbalances. Nurse researchers are well positioned to advance research justice at the intersection of reproductive justice and ethics to fully engage diverse populations in advancing health equity to support the best health outcomes.

“…The denial to support Black women's reproductive goals reflects the historical underpinnings of slavery and reproductive control of Black populations in the United States, especially those influenced by incarceration (Brown et al, 2021;Ross, 2017). For example, in the past 40 years, women of color in the United States have been forcibly sterilized without informed consent (Marchevsky, 2018). Therefore, to overcome the ethical shortcomings of our past, we must consider justice-involved Black women's experiences and goals related to childrearing in tandem and despite their prior or current incarceration status.…”

et al. 2023

Objective: There are approximately 231,000 women detained daily within the nation’s jail and prison systems with women of color making up nearly half of those experiencing incarceration. The purpose of this scoping review was to synthesize the literature on the reproductive autonomy of Black women influenced by incarceration, using the three tenets of reproductive justice. Methods: We searched PubMed, CINAHL, SocINDEX, and PsycINFO for research related to reproductive justice written in English and published in the United States from 1980 to 2022. A review of 440 article titles and abstracts yielded 32 articles for full-text review; nine articles met inclusion. Results: Eight addressed Tenet 1; five mentioned Tenet 2; none addressed Tenet 3. Recognition of the influence of incarceration on the reproductive autonomy of Black women is limited. Conclusion: The findings from this review suggest a need to address (a) reproductive choice, (b) support goals, and (c) support of justice-involved Black women.
