Looking at prisons, jails, and detention centers as sites of reproductive injustice, doula care is one potential solution to offer advocacy for incarcerated people across the reproductive spectrum, ensuring they have access to contraception, abortion resources, pregnancy education, nutrition, and care, labor and birthing support, and postpartum emotional support. To capture the full scope of doula work, this project maps both the nuanced aspects of doula projects in carceral systems and the locations of the facilities in which they practice.
