MISSION - WHAT WE DO

A Step Ahead of Middle Tennessee prevents unplanned pregnancies by providing education and access to long-acting, reversible contraception (LARC).

VISION - GOALS AND ASPIRATIONS

We know that not every woman has access to the resources necessary for effective family planning, and we want to change that, because preventing unplanned pregnancy means: better educational and economic outcomes, more stable families and increased health and happiness for women and children.

SERVICES - HOW WE DO IT

To qualify for our services, you must live or go to school in one of our 29 middle Tennessee counties: Bedford, Cannon, Cheatham, Davidson, DeKalb, Dickson, Giles, Hickman, Houston, Humphreys, Lawrence, Lewis, Lincoln, Macon, Marshall, Maury, Montgomery, Moore, Perry, Putnam, Robertson, Rutherford, Smith, Stewart, Sumner, Trousdale, Wayne, Williamson, and Wilson. We connect clients with free contraceptive-healthcare services and long-term birth control following this model: - Partner with qualified health centers - Ensure medical providers are trained and ready to offer LARCs - Manage a call center and online portal for client inquiries/scheduling - Cover costs for well-woman exams, contraception consultations, pap smears, pregnancy and STI tests - Provide free LARC insertion of patient’s choice - Pay for transportation to/from appointments in partnership with Lyft - Provide free removal of the LARC device as needed - Generate awareness and deliver education through outreach
