The Net Effect research project will examine the impact of reproductive health policy changes in six states over five years. The study will include monitoring service delivery networks, tracking publicly funded services, quantifying changes in health centers, examining staff experiences, and tracking reproductive health indicators. Guttmacher will also conduct longitudinal studies to document the experiences of women most impacted by policy changes. Study findings will be used by researchers, advocates, and policymakers to protect and improve access to reproductive health care.
