Abstract

Despite the healthcare needs of an increasing number of incarcerated women in the United States, few researchers access this underserved population. The authors provide practical information to help novice researchers navigate potential institutional challenges including obtaining institutional review board approval, gaining entry, complying with rules and regulations, recruiting and retaining participants, and collecting data.
