The Green Inequality Lab is a multidisciplinary Research team, led by Dr. Tiffany Green, based at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. We conduct community-engaged research focused on a diverse range of reproductive justice issues. Our collaborative team of scientists, community, and trainees work together to gather data to support meaningful change

We are seeking an entry to early career Research Coordinator to support qualitative data collection on two projects. In both studies, the Research Coordinator will recruit and interview Black people who have experience with the topic being studied.

Black People's Pregnancy Preferences Study (BoPPs): We are using interviews and surveys to document abortion preferences among Black people who can get pregnant. We will study how structural and legal barriers affect these preferences.

Effects of Birth Cost Recovery on Black Families in Wisconsin: Birth Cost Recovery (BCR) is a policy that holds some unmarried, non-custodial fathers responsible for Medicaid costs at the time of delivery. We are conducting a community-engaged study to better understand how BCR impacts Black families.

We will prioritize the recruitment of individuals with lived experience. People who have lived experience are those directly affected by the social, health, public health, or other issues and by the strategies that aim to address those issues. This gives them insights that can inform and improve research, policies, practices, and programs.

Aside from this, applicants should have the following qualifications:

• Knowledge of and commitment to reproductive justice, racial justice, and gender equity
• Cultural humility and ability to understand issues impacting marginalized communities
• Ability to communicate to diverse groups about sensitive topics
• Ability to work independently and take initiative on tasks/projects
• Ability to maintain a high level of attention to detail and demonstrate organizational skills
• Ability to communicate effectively (verbal and written)
• Ability to prioritize and manage multiple projects
• Bachelor's degree OR high school diploma with relevant, practical experience

A particularly strong applicant will have experience with qualitative research, especially in the context of community-engaged research or outreach in reproductive health, rights, or justice.

Even if candidates don't feel that they meet every single qualification, we still encourage them to apply. We're eager to meet people that believe in our mission and can contribute to our team in a variety of ways - not just candidates who check all the boxes.
