CECA is a convener of committed partners working to ensure access to contraception as part of a broader vision to achieve sexual and reproductive health equity for the U.S.
Statewide Contraceptive Access Initiatives (SCAI) play a unique role in expanding access to contraception by bringing together key partners committed to advancing access, increasing capacity to provide services, and removing structural barriers to contraceptive access, such as cost.
CECA hosted a webinar in October 2024 to share the important work of SCAI and recommendations to expand contraceptive access through current and future initiatives, with a focus on Sexual and Reproductive Health Equity (SRHE).
Expert speakers, including leaders of initiatives in Illinois, Indiana, and Utah, shared key insights during the webinar to help program implementers, researchers, funders, and other partners build on lessons learned, address challenges, and advance strategies to increase contraceptive access.
