Structural barriers to sexual and reproductive health care among Black and Latina cisgender and transgender U.S. women who use drugs: a qualitative study
Structural and collective efforts rooted in reproductive justice are urgently needed to address the precarious social and economic conditions, multiple intersecting systems of oppression, and criminal legal and health care practices that negatively impact the lives and SRH care of Black and Latina cisgender and transgender women who use drugs and, instead, foster health, healing, and well-being at the personal, community, and societal level.
