Title X Under Attack
from rePROs Fight Back · host Jennie Wetter, Clare Coleman
Title X is the national family planning and reproductive health program for low income women and men enacted by Congress and signed into law by President Richard Nixon in 1970. The bipartisan program was intended to combat the war on poverty; low income women were having more children than higher income women, due to poor access to contraception and its high costs. Title X was created to equalize access to modern contraceptive care, and the program still fulfills that promise today. Clare Coleman, President of the National Family Planning and Reproductive Health Association (NFPRHA), talks to us about NFPRHA, Title X, and what we can do to save Title X from the current administration’s unprecedented attacks.For more information, check out Boom!
