ABSTRACT
Women experiencing housing insecurity are at an elevated risk for adverse reproductive health outcomes due to the prevalence of chronic health conditions and higher risk behaviors. Social service and healthcare providers are front line in addressing women's needs when they seek support. Thus, we sought to explore reproductive healthcare barriers using in-depth interviews with 17 providers at 11 facilities serving housing-insecure women in Salt Lake County, Utah, USA from April to July 2018. Providers noted a number of system-, provider-, and individual-level barriers. Dominant themes include reliance on unstable funding, lack of provider training on reproductive health, and perceived logistical challenges to care. Due to the prevalence of immediate needs among housing-insecure women, providers attest that reproductive health needs often do not emerge as their urgent concern. Our findings suggest that addressing policy and funding challenges to prioritizing reproductive needs among housing-insecure women can help mitigate the potential for long-term adverse reproductive outcomes.
