We forget the face behind the statistics," [Bohling] says. "Kids don't talk about why they're having sex. I came from a home where there was abuse and alcoholism. You're in such a rush to grow up so you can get out And you don't make the best decisions. "They're restricting access by eliminating the words 'all' and 'at any time,' meaning that parents and community members could only see the curriculum before they begin teaching it," [Rhonda Thompson] says. "That change of policy and lack of transparency is disrespectful of parents." "When you talk about abstinence first, then educate on health benefits of contraception," she says, "the message you're sending to teens is it's acceptable to be engaged in casual sexual activity as long as you use contraception."

The dissemination of birth control was only one of a host of interventions into the intimate and everyday practices of ordinary Egyptians that aimed at creating reformed and modernized families and productive citizens. [...] the adoption of a population program based on contraception entailed the recognition of Egyptian women as reproductive subjects for whom using birth control was to constitute part of the duties of citizenship even as it simultaneously delineated the normative parameters within which reproductive choice could be exercised.
...Such statistics were quoted in the Egyptian press with increasing ...

There is a clear agenda coming out of the House," [C. Nicole Mason] said, "It's very conservative and it's an agenda that is not in line with the president's agenda and the priorities of a lot of American working people. "Two-thirds of our patients are either on Medicaid or receive services for a reduced rate or free," said Erica Sackin, the media content and outreach manager for Planned Parenthood in New York City, who helped organize the protest in Foley Square. "So I think if s the women who generally need help in paying for health care or don't have another place to go who if s targeting, which is reprehensible." "Supporters of the Pence Amendment made it clear on the House floor that their goal was to eliminate the services of Planned Parenthood and cut off women's access to abor...

I think that Vermonters feel that they can just walk into a hospital or a doctor's office and say, 'I need an abortion,' and just get one, no matter what age they are or what medical complications they might have," says [Wynona Ward]. "Frankly, that's what I always thought. "It's all about timing," notes Jessica Oski, public affairs director for Planned Parenthood of Northern New England. "So if a woman's car breaks down and she's a day late, that's it." Likewise, if a woman cannot find daycare for her children or get time off from her job, a 24-hour delay can mean the difference between paying several hundred dollars for an in-state abortion, or several thousand for one out of state. "If they had said to us, 'We're not comfortable doing this procedure. Go to New York or Boston or ...

Teen pregnancies and unplanned pregnancy among single young adults are epidemic in San Antonio and in Texas," said Dr. Janet Realini, president of Healthy Futures of Texas. "These two are very sensitive issues, but we must address them if we are to reduce poverty, child abuse, school dropout and abortion in our community. "Unplanned pregnancy is measured by women themselves -it is an unplanned pregnancy because the woman says it was unplanned," stated [Bill Albert]. "Half of all pregnancies in the United States are unplanned, and most of those are single women in their twenties." Statistics from the state health department demonstrate that 62 percent of pregnancies among 1829 year olds in Bexar County are unplanned. "Sadly, when a pregnancy is unplanned, the risks are much higher -for...

Birth control as preventive health care should be a no-brainer. Even leaving the social and economic benefits of planned child- bearing aside, the health benefits for mothers and infants are well- established and substantial. Women are less likely to get early prenatal care with unplanned pregnancies and less likely to avoid tobacco and alcohol, thought to be bad for fetuses. The babies are more likely to have low birth weights and to die in their first year.
Contraception should be among the free preventive care services ..., too: The National Center for Health Statistics reports that use of birth control in the U.S. is ...
