Community-Based Distribution Programs
USAID sponsors community-based
distribution programs that support door-to-door provision
of family planning information and services. These efforts
improve access for those who desire these services,
but may have difficulty getting to a service provider
or clinic. Early successes in Bangladesh, Tunisia, Mexico,
Colombia, Egypt, and Uganda have provided models for
countries throughout the developing world. USAID also
works to link its family planning programs with other
community-based efforts to improve maternal and child
health, prevent HIV/AIDS, and enhance women's status.
