Family Planning offers a variety of modern methods of birth control as well as pregnancy testing and appropriate referrals.

Before you receive birth control through the health department, you will receive a clinical exam by a Nurse Clinician Practitioner or a Doctor. This exam includes a pap test to screen for cervical cancer and breast exam. The health department also provides abstinence counseling.
