Direction 17 - Focusing on Family Planning (1994)

Family Planning and Teen Pregnancy

Both government and the religious community share deep concern over the continuing rise of teen pregnancy and out-of-wedlock births. It is logical that we join forces to address this problem together. The focus of these partnerships will be, at a minimum, that pregnant teens, and teen parents have access to information and services to reduce future unplanned pregnancies.

We will apply for a waiver to expand eligibility for family planning services to 185 percent of poverty by January 1, 1995. In addition we will continue our partnership with Michigan Department of Public Health in implementing teen pregnancy strategies and continue our pilot contracts for family planning, transitional living, pregnancy prevention, and parenting skills training.
