“…North American research identified few opportunities for women released after conflict with the law/prison regarding social inclusion and providing services to improve health and well-being. The analyses showed a lack of articulation between the different care services, resulting in unmet mental health needs, financial restrictions, limited organizational capacity, implicit prejudice, and deficient cultural support 6 . An analysis of scientific literature and records of Australian agencies involved in the situation of these women showed that the stigma associated with having been in prison is a hindrance to transition to the community, including finding employment and housing 7 .…”

This article analyzes vulnerabilities and prospects of restructuring the lives of women who experienced maternity in prison. This qualitative study was performed with a thematic analysis of the reports of women released from the prison system who experienced pregnancy and delivery in a female penitentiary in a Southern Brazilian capital. Three thematic categories were identified: “Between rupture and freedom”, a category focused on the description of moments before the borderline date for the child’s stay with the mother in prison, which produces great expectations due to the possibility of women managing to get out of prison along with their child; “Freedom is right there”, which narrates leaving prison and the first social contacts outside this environment; and “Inmate in daily life”, which addresses the difficulties resulting from social exclusion that women were already facing before imprisonment, that is, having the minimum conditions to keep away from the crime dynamics. Leaving the prison system does not necessarily mean freedom. The “identity crossroads” keep following women and their children even after leaving prison. Therefore, vulnerability manifests itself in the same way or more cruelly than before.

“…Pesquisa norte-americana identificou poucas oportunidades a mulheres em liberdade após conflito com a lei/prisão no que se refere à inclusão social e prestação de serviços para melhorar a saúde e o bem-estar. As análises apontaram falta de articulação entre os diferentes serviços assistenciais, acarretando necessidades de saúde mental não atendidas, restrições financeiras, capacidade organizacional limitada, preconceito implícito e suporte cultural deficiente 6 . Uma análise de literatura científica e de registros de agências australianas, implicadas na situação dessas mulheres, evidenciou que o estigma associado a ter estado na prisão é uma barreira à transição para a comunidade, incluindo encontrar emprego e habitação 7 .…”

Resumo O presente artigo analisa as vulnerabilidades e as perspectivas de reestruturação da vida de mulheres que vivenciaram a maternidade no cárcere. Estudo qualitativo com análise temática dos relatos de mulheres egressas do sistema prisional, que vivenciaram a gestação e o parto em uma penitenciária feminina de uma capital do sul do Brasil. Foram identificadas três categorias temáticas: “Entre a ruptura e a liberdade”, categoria com foco na descrição dos momentos antecedentes à data limítrofe para a permanência da criança junto com a mãe no cárcere, fato que produz grande expectativa, pela possibilidade de a mulher conseguir sair da prisão junto com seu filho; “A liberdade é logo ali”, categoria que narra o contexto de saída da prisão e os primeiros contatos sociais fora desse ambiente; e “Presas no cotidiano”, categoria que aborda as dificuldades decorrentes de exclusão social que as mulheres já estavam enfrentando antes do aprisionamento, ou seja, ter as condições mínimas para manterem-se afastadas da dinâmica do crime. A saída do sistema prisional não significa necessariamente liberdade. As encruzilhadas identitárias seguem acompanhando as mulheres e seus filhos, de tal modo que após a saída do cárcere, a vulnerabilidade manifesta-se do mesmo modo ou mais cruelmente do que antes.
