This is a follow up on a 2016 article discussing the rise in punitive perinatal substance use laws. From 2016-2023, there has been a 39% increase in laws equating perinatal substance use with child abuse, and a 73% increase in mandated reporting laws, despite limited evidence that these laws are helpful. We write this update to raise awareness for providers, so they may better counsel patients on this topic and help advocate for treatment focused policies in their state.
这是对2016年一篇讨论惩罚性围产期物质使用法律增加情况的文章的跟进。从2016年到2023年,将围产期物质使用等同于虐待儿童的法律增加了39%,强制报告法律增加了73%,尽管几乎没有证据表明这些法律有帮助。我们撰写此更新内容是为了提高医疗服务提供者的认识,以便他们能在这个话题上更好地为患者提供咨询,并帮助在其所在州倡导以治疗为重点的政策。
