Preconception care and family planning: Exploring the potential for integration
The California Family Health Council recently attended the American Public Health Association’s (APHA) Annual Meeting and Exposition in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Three of CFHC’s experts presented their research to conference attendees.
As part of the Preconception Integration Project, providers included brief preconception messages within family planning visits. Messages adressed five priority areas: diabetes, obesity/overweight, folic acid intake, rubella immunization, and substance use.
The results revealed that women were very receptive to preconception messages and clinicians were supportive of the integration of brief preconception counseling.
View the slides from the APHA presentation on results from the Preconception Integration Project.

A New Toolkit for Evaluating Health Education Materials
The California Family Health Council, Inc. (CFHC) is pleased to announce a new resource entitled Evaluating Health Education Materials: A Toolkit on Meeting the Title X Information and Education Guidelines.
Originally designed to help Title X Delegate Agencies in California offer their clients culturally and linguistically appropriate health education materials and services, the toolkit can easily be tailored to meet the needs of other programs, with or without Title X funding.
Addressing Information and Education Needs Among Family Planning Clients
If you are a Title X funded program, this Toolkit will provide concrete and creative suggestions for meeting the TitleX I&E guidelines. Even if your agency is not Title X-funded it will help you better serve the information and education needs of your clients.
The Toolkit begins by highlighting the theoretical framework and rationale behind the I&E regulations. It answers such questions as:
- Why is it important to evaluate health education materials?
- What is health literacy?
- What are the challenges many clients face?
- What is linguistic and cultural competency?
When health education materials are easy to read and culturally acceptable to the clients served, you as a health care provider, can enhance your services and improve your clients’ care.

Sex info and life advice direct to your phone!
What better way to educate teens on imporant sex info and life advice than using the medium they carry around with them 24/7? Text messaging is an easy, quick and instant way to receive and send information and something that comes second nature to most teens today.
In early April of 2009 the CFHC, the CA STD Control Branch and ISIS launched an awesome new text messaging service called "The Hookup". Teens can sign up to receive weekly sex info and life advice sent directly to their phone for free by texting HOOKUP to 36524. You can also find the nearest clinic to you for health services, if you enter your zip code. The online home of "The Hookup" is www.TeenSource.org. You can visit the site to get links to the latest weekly tips and links to get more information.
Here are some of the latest hookup tips available on the TeenSource website.
