Description

Choose Well (CW), an ongoing statewide contraceptive access initiative in South Carolina, was launched in 2017 and aimed to implement contraceptive care best practices via training and funding for contraceptive methods. As part of the initiative, clinics within the South Carolina Health Department (DHEC clinics), which is the state’s Title X agency, received trainings in the areas of administrative support, contraceptive counseling, and device placement and removal, in addition to funding for contraceptive devices. Title X Family Planning program is a federal program that provides reproductive health services for low-income patients through a network of safety–net clinics. While Title X has standards and requirements for training, there are still some gaps in the trainings for contraceptive provision.
