Improving Adolescent Contraceptive Care in the South: Policy Brief

Youth-friendly, person-centered contraceptive care (YFPCCC) improves the quality of care that youth receive. Research shows that clinic characteristics that support youth-friendly, person-centered care,like confidentiality and consent policies and trained providers, contribute to high quality contraceptive care for youth. As such, establishing or strengthening clinic policies requiring training and confidentiality will support a clinic’s capacity to provide YFPCCC. Understanding Southern safety-net clinics’ characteristics supporting YFPCCC and Southern youths’ perceptions of their care can highlight areas where policies may need to be established or strengthened.
