Add Your Family Planning Programs to the High-Impact Practices Map
Are you implementing high-impact practices in family planning (HIPs)<http://www.k4health.org/hips>?  If so, we would like to add information about your program to an interactive online map<http://www.k4health.org/hips/map-survey> to help programs connect with each other and learn from each other's successes and challenges.
HIPs are promising or best practices that, when scaled up and institutionalized, will maximize investments in a comprehensive family planning strategy. Identified by international experts in family planning and reproductive health, under the auspices of the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID), HIPs help family planning programs focus their resources and efforts to ensure they have the broadest reach and greatest impact.
As a first step, the online HIP map, developed with support from USAID and the Knowledge for Health Project (K4Health), will include information on the following four HIPs in 27 priority countries*:

*         Providing family planning counseling and methods at the same time and location where women receive postabortion treatment.

*         Offering a wide range of family planning methods through mobile clinical outreach.

*         Offering family planning services during routine child immunization contacts.

*         Supporting community health workers (CHWs) to provide a wide range of family planning methods.



If you are implementing a program in any of the 27 priority countries involving one of these four HIPs, please take our brief survey<http://www.k4health.org/hips/map-survey> to add your program to the online map. The more programs that respond, the more useful the map will be. We welcome all relevant programs, whether funded by USAID or other donors or governments.
