• Description:
  The Increasing Access to Contraception Learning Community was established to disseminate strategies and best practices to support 27 jurisdictions in the development of policies and programs to increase access to the full range of reversible contraceptives. We describe Learning Community activities and identify those that were most useful to participants. Although participation in Learning Community provided jurisdictional teams with structured activities such as virtual learning and peer networking opportunities, some teams struggled with full participation because of staffing turnover and shifts in priorities.
