Abstract:
The Coalition to Expand Contraceptive Access and Emory University's Center for Reproductive Health Research in the Southeast led a collaborative effort to convene statewide contraceptive access initiatives (SCAI) to identify opportunities to meaningfully advance sexual and reproductive health equity (SRHE) in ongoing and future initiatives. The effort engaged more than 40 stakeholders representing ten SCAI and assessed published literature to draw collective insights, successes, and lessons learned. This commentary outlines four concrete recommendations derived from this effort: (1) center communities in all phases of the initiative, (2) foster flexibility and responsiveness in initiative activities, (3) align goals with comprehensive measures, and (4) prioritize sustainable approaches. The commentary also explores how these recommendations connect to the principles of SRHE and how implementers, evaluators, funders, and supporters of contraceptive access initiatives can implement them to advance SRHE.
