Strengthening the family planning program and its capacities at all levels of the health system to better serve women and their families

Family planning saves lives and empowers women to improve their family’s health, education, and financial stability. JSIPL works with governments, NGOs and private sector partners to overcome challenges facing adolescent girls, women and men in accessing family planning services, including lack of complete and accurate information, inadequate facilities, limited access, restrictive policies and supply chain bottlenecks.
