Designing and evaluating a statewide person-centered contraceptive access initiative: The PATH4YOU program
A statewide contraceptive access initiative in Indiana (PATH4YOU) was designed with a person-centered care framework and provides free, same-day access to comprehensive contraception. Research sample participants reported high-quality contraception counseling and shared decision-making, with differences noted based on ethnicity, sexual attraction and appointment type, but no other demographics.
