Corey Shdaimah, Todd Becker, Nancy Franke in Affilia: Feminist Inquiry in Social Work
Main content
Daniel Thursz Distinguished Professor of Social Justice Corey Shdaimah, PhD alumni Todd Becker (postdoctorl fellow at Washington University at St. Louis) and Nancy Franke (Assistant Professor at LaSalle Univerity) and Professor Chrysanthi Leon of University of Delaware published an article that examines how prostitution diversion programs (PDPs) use their authority to employ intrusive interventions designed to police women and who are arrested for engaging in illegal sex work. The courts set and enforce boundaries between what they consider to be unacceptable and normative behaviors and relationships while disregarding systemic forces that shape women's choices and constructions of normativity. The article is based on ethnographic and interview data with women who participated in PDPs and the criminal legal system and therapeutic profesionals who run them, collected in two waves (from 2011-2014 and 2020-2022)..
