Improving access to healthcare
Converge
Statewide Marketing for Access to Birth Control via Clinical Network and Telehealth
As the recipient of Mississippi’s Title X Family Planning Program grant, Converge has established a statewide network of 26 clinical sites for walk-in family planning with more sites to be established. Additionally, Converge has obtained a funding commitment to launch telecontraception (telehealth services for contraception) for a minimum of 3,000 uninsured patients. Converge will contract with an established telehealth company which specializes in reproductive health.
The Bower Foundation has provided one year of funding for statewide marketing to Mississippians regarding access to contraception services via the clinical sites and telehealth.
