Closing the contraceptive coverage gap: A multipronged approach to advancing reproductive equity in Illinois.

Despite Illinois' progress in the area of reproductive health, Black, Indigenous, and People of Color, young people, and people with low resources face persistent barriers to high-quality contraceptive care and experience inequities in reproductive health outcomes. Illinois Contraceptive Access Now (ICAN!) is a 5-year initiative that aims to improve the quality and coverage of contraceptive care at community health centers statewide. By leveraging state policies, a robust community health infrastructure, digital innovation, and with a focus on sustainability, ICAN! seeks to cut the "contraceptive coverage gap" in Illinois in half by 2025. As Illinois democratizes access to contraceptive care, this initiative can serve as a model for advancing reproductive equity nationwide. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
