Breast and Cervical Cancer Screening (BCCP) 

The Georgia Breast and Cervical Cancer Program promotes early detection by providing breast and cervical screenings to uninsured or underinsured women residing in Georgia.

Family Planning

The Family Planning program provides education, counseling, and birth control methods to reduce unwanted pregnancies. The programs empower women to make informed decisions about their health. Family Planning also prepares women for a healthy pregnancy and baby.

 

Healthy Pregnancy 

Pregnancy can be both an exciting and stressful time for women. We provide services to educate and promote the health of women and babies.

 

DPH Home Visiting Program 

The Perinatal Health Partnership (PHP) Program provides home visiting services during pregnancy and up to the infant’s first birthday following delivery. Women with high-risk pregnancies or identified factors that may increase the risk of poor pregnancy outcomes will be targeted for home visiting services and interventions. Enrollment is also available after delivery.
