Do Free Pregnancy Test Kits Increase the Number of Family Planning Clients Supplied by CHWs?

This presentation describes the SHOPS study on whether offering free pregnancy test kits to community health workers (CHWs), along with training on how to use the tests, increases the number of new hormonal contraceptive clients that CHWs supply contraceptives to, as well as the number of individual family planning counseling sessions. It was presented at the Making Impact Evaluation Matter: Better Evidence for Effective Policies and Programmes conference in Manila on September 4, 2014.
