From Gaslighting to Enlightening: Reproductive Justice as an Interdisciplinary Solution to Close the Health Gap
Journal of Social Work Education, v59 suppl 1 pS36-S47 2023
This conceptual article aims to inform social work educators on facilitating critical discourse among social work students by applying reproductive justice, leveraging interdisciplinary practice, and addressing the Social Work Grand Challenges. Reproductive justice tenets provide an interdisciplinary framework that assists in the development of the learning environment, participant's critical thinking, self-awareness, and self-regulation; preparing them for professional dialog and ethical decision making. This article will outline the tenets of reproductive justice, providing resources and tools for creating an environment that will assist in the facilitation of critical and professional conversations; while providing strategies that incorporate interdisciplinary partners into the classroom thus providing a reproductive justice sensitive analysis and solutions for approaching social issues that affect the people social workers serve.
