Family Planning Program
The
mission of the Family Planning program is to provide individuals the information and means to exercise personal choice in determining the number and spacing of their children. This program offers a
broad range of acceptable and effective family planning methods, including
natural family planning methods, infertility services, and
services to adolescents.
General Information
Services provided through family planning
clinics allow men and women to make well-informed reproductive health choices.
The family planning clinic addresses the unmet family planning needs of men and
women at or below poverty, and those slightly above poverty, but still
considered low income, and provides access to those with special needs (such as
teens and high risk women). No one is denied services because of inability
to pay.
