Evaluating the Effectiveness of Group Sessions with Pre-recorded Presentations on Digital and Postpartum Health Literacy Among Arab American Women
Group health literacy training sessions that implement culturally concurrent methods, including pre-recorded presentations, are effective in increasing postpartum knowledge and health literacy in the Arab RIM community, regardless of parity. Enhancing PHL has the potential to reduce the risks of postpartum complications, such as postpartum depression (PPD), and can potentially contribute to postpartum females' mental and physical health

Do Bedsider Family Planning Mobile Text Message and E-mail Reminders Increase Kept Appointments and Contraceptive Coverage

Postpartum Contraception and Interpregnancy Intervals Among Adolescent Mothers Accessing Public Services in California
Association of Access to Publicly Funded Family Planning Services With Adolescent Birthrates in California Counties
Objectives. We examined the association of adolescent birthrates (ABRs) with access to and receipt of publicly funded family planning services in California counties provided through 2 state programs: Medi-Cal, California’s Medicaid program, and the Family Planning, Access, Care, and Treatment (Family PACT) program. Methods. Our key data sources included the California Health Interview Survey and California Women’s Health Survey, Medi-Cal and Fam…
Enhancing Service Delivery Through Title X Funding
Compared with other Family PACT providers, clinics that receive Title X funding have implemented greater infrastructure enhancements to promote access and improve the quality of service for underserved populations. This may be because Title X-funded providers have more financial opportunities to provide the array of services that best respond to their clients' needs
Estimating the Fertility Effect of Expansions of Publicly Funded Family Planning Services in California
Race, Ethnicity and Differences in Contraception Among Low‐Income Women
Although Family PACT eliminates financial barriers to method choice, the methods women received differed substantially by race and ethnicity in this low-income population. The reduction in racial and ethnic disparities following introduction of the patch suggests that methods with novel characteristics may increase acceptability of contraceptives among minority women
Birth Control Sabotage and Forced Sex
Women who experience intimate partner violence often experience birth control sabotage, forced sex, and partner's unwillingness to use condoms. We interviewed 53 women at four domestic violence shelters. Participants reported that their abusive partners frequently refused to use condoms, impeded them from accessing health care, and subjected them to birth control sabotage, infidelity, and forced sex. However, women also reported strategies to cou…
