New Data Released: Contraceptive Needs and Services in the United States, 1994-2016!
DSDR is excited to announce the release of Contraceptive Needs and Services in the United States, 1994-2016!
The Contraceptive Needs and Services study, conducted by the Guttmacher Institute, tracks the number of women who have a potential demand for contraceptive care (due to reproductive age, sexual activity, and no interest in becoming pregnant),the subset of these women who likely need public support for care, and then the numbers of women who received contraceptive services from publicly funded clinics and the numbers of clinics providing publicly supported contraceptive services. Dataset one, the “need for contraceptive services,” covers county-level aggregate data for six different years between 1995 and 2016. For each county, the data represent estimates of demand for contraceptive services and the number who likely need public support for care, as totals and also according to key socio-demographic characteristics. Dataset two, “clinics providing contraceptive services and women served,” provides county-level aggregate data for six different years between 1994 and 2015. For each county, the data represented the number of publicly funded clinics by clinic type and funding status as well as the number of female contraceptive patients served at those clinics.
