Family Planning
« Back to Sexual Health
Family planning programs are a combination of health education, counseling, and clinical services. Services offered are meant to help individuals decide if they want to have a child, how to plan to have a child and how to make personal choices when planning to have a family.
The goals of the CCDPH Family Planning Program are to:
- Provide comprehensive family planning services and care to low income women of child bearing age
- Allow all women the opportunity to improve pregnancy outcomes.
- Prevent unintended pregnancies
- Increase the involvement of male partners
- Reduce teenage pregnancies through education, with an emphasis on postponement of sexual activity counseling and well-managed contraception
