Addressing dire racial disparities in reproductive health care is critical post-Roe, say advocates
<p>How are the deep racial disparities in reproductive health care being addressed in light of Roe v. Wade’s overturning?</p> <p>Connecticut nurse-midwife, nurse educator and historian Dr. Lucinda Canty recently launched Lucinda's House, to help local women of color "become an active part in eliminating structural barriers to improve their overall health and well-being."</p> <p>This hour, we hear from Dr. Canty about this new effort, as well as her research on maternal morbidity. Her 2020 doctoral thesis was titled, <a href="https://opencommons.uconn.edu/dissertations/2426/">"It's Not Always Rainbows and Unicorns: The Lived Experience of Severe Maternal Morbidity Among Black Women."</a></p> <p>Plus, journalist and author Linda Villarosa discusses her new book, <a href="https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/59148724-under-the-skin?ac=1&from_search=true&qid=EgyO0IG41i&rank=1">Under the Skin: The Hidden Toll of Racism on American Lives and on the Health of Our Nation</a>.</p> <p>"Black women are three to four times more likely to die or almost die" during childbirth, Villarosa explains. "A Black woman with a master's degree or more is more likely to have a poorer birth outcome than a white woman with an eighth grade education. So that speaks to something beyond even the place where you are, it speaks to something... happening to Black women, even across class lines."</p> <p>Villarosa stresses that while "it's important for every woman no matter who you are, to have the best health care, to demand that kind of health care, to be educated, to have someone like a doula or some other kind of birth partner with you... we can't just put this responsibility of raising our birth status of our country on the backs of individuals themselves, especially those who are pregnant... Instead, we have to advocate for changes in the system that make it more equitable."</p> <p><strong>GUESTS:</strong></p> <ul> <li><strong>Dr. Lucinda Canty:</strong> Nurse-Midwife; Founder, <a href="https://lucindashouse.org/">Lucinda's House</a>; Assistant Professor of Nursing, University of St. Joseph; Researcher and Historian; Reproductive Health Justice Activist; Artist; Poet</li> <li><strong><a href="https://www.lindavillarosa.com/">Linda Villarosa:</a> </strong>Author, Under the Skin: The Hidden Toll of Racism on American Lives and on the Health of Our Nation; Contributing Writer, The New York Times</li> </ul><p><a href="http://wnpr.org/donate" rel="payment">Support the show: http://wnpr.org/donate</a></p><p>See <a href="https://omnystudio.com/listener">omnystudio.com/listener</a> for privacy information.</p>

<p>In light of the Supreme Court’s recent ruling on abortion, some companies are announcing their commitment to cover abortion care and travel costs for employees.

Connecticut's "safe harbor" law: Hear from Planned Parenthood, advanced-practice clinicians
<p>A shortage of reproductive health professionals has resulted in wait times for some services in our state, including in-clinic abortions.</p> <p>Connecticut's "safe harbor" law expands the scope of care for advanced-practice clinicians to include procedural abortions, and is expected to lessen what is now up to a two-week wait. These clinicians are advanced practice registered nurses (APRNs), clinical-nurse midwives (CNMs) and physician's assistants (PAs).</p> <p>CNM and CEO and President of Planned Parenthood of Southern New England Amanda Skinner <a href="https://ctmirror.org/2022/06/24/roe-v-wade-overturned-abortion-legal-ct/">told the Connecticut Mirror</a> she expects a "continued surge in patients" in the wake of the Dobbs decision.</p> <p>This hour, Skinner joins us to discuss the important role advanced-practice clinicians play in reproductive health care. At Planned Parenthood, these clinicians are primary care providers, she explains.</p> <p>Plus, Loren Fields is an advanced-practice nurse, educator and longtime member of Clinicians in Abortion Care, an arm of the National Abortion Federation.</p> <p><strong>GUESTS:</strong></p> <ul> <li><strong>Amanda Skinner, CNM, MBA:</strong> CEO and President, <a href="https://www.plannedparenthood.org/planned-parenthood-southern-new-england">Planned Parenthood of Southern New England</a></li> <li><strong>Loren Fields, DNP, MSN, APRN: </strong>Clinician, Planned Parenthood of Southern New England; Lecturer in Nursing, Yale School of Nursing; Member and Former Advisory Committee Chair, <a href="https://prochoice.org/providers/ciac/">Clinicians in Abortion Care</a></li> </ul> <p>Where We Live is dedicated to exploring the issues and impact of the Supreme Court’s overturning of Roe.
