S3 E5: Trauma-Informed Pregnancy Care with Becca Schwartz, LCSW

Becca Schwartz, LCSW, speaks about Team Lily, a pregnancy clinic for people experiencing significant barriers to care located at Zuckerberg San Francisco General Hospital. We focus on trauma-informed care: how past trauma can show up for patients in the medical setting, ways providers can practice trauma-informed care, and how these issues present and are addressed in San Francisco and at Team Lily. We’d like to note that this episode contains occasional gendered language when talking about pregnant people. We recognize that not all pregnant people identify as women. We also acknowledge the national events taking place that are magnifying the pre-existing reproductive injustices in our country and recognize the disproportionate effects anti-abortion legislation has on low-income people of color in rural areas. We stand with abortion activists, abortion providers, and abortion seekers globally. We firmly believe that abortion should be provided on demand, and without apology, for all people.
