DOH-Manatee provides confidential, comprehensive Family Planning services to minors (teens) and adults of child-bearing age. Fees are based on your ability to pay (see Eligibility). Family Planning services are usually provided to teens at no cost.
Benefits of Family Planning
Family Planning plays a key role in preventing unintended pregnancies, including adolescent (teen) pregnancies. Preventing unintended pregnancies has a positive effect on birth outcomes. Family planning services (including education, screening and treatment) also reduce both the number of new cases and the impact of sexually transmitted diseases.
