In her ongoing family care work, Dr. Meinertz uses qualitative methodologies to explore the lived experiences of under-researched individuals and family structures, including fathers, racial and ethnic groups, and blended families on topics of family care decision-making processes, the role of gender in family care, and perceptions of family care.
