Preventing Unintended Pregnancy: What’s Possible, Good, Better, & Best with Emergency Contraception

Unintended pregnancy can significantly impact a college student’s academic performance and overall well-being. Emergency Contraception (EC) is one of several effective preventive options that can help students avoid unintended pregnancies. However, institutional support for students in preventing unintended pregnancies varies greatly, influenced by factors like institutional type, student demographics, geographic location, and specific circumstances. This session will explore how higher education professionals from diverse fields can incorporate EC into their support strategies for students.

Learning Outcomes:

  1. Participants will be able to articulate the relationship between unintended pregnancy and student’s academic outcomes and well-being.
  2. Participants will be able to describe how EC works as part of a comprehensive unintended pregnancy prevention program.
  3. Participants will be able to compare EC access interventions across different contexts and programmatic areas.
