Project Narrative:
•
Weld County Health Department proposes to continue to increase activities that serve women
meeting the Women In Need ( WIN) criteria by the maintance of an on-site clinic at Monfort
Children's Clinic. This collaboration has provided a site that is available to many of the women
that meet the WIN criteria. Outreach at this site has also been an alternative location for at risk
teens and low income women to access reproductive health services. Since December 1997, 90 at
risk women have been served and there has been intense colloraboration with the peervention
program as a "teen friendly clinic". 48% of the clients seen at Monfort Children's Clinic have
been teens. The department also proposed to expand our outreach efforts to included
community based facilities serving, in part, the WIN target population; women receiving
drug/alcohol rehabilitation, TANF/medicaid recepients, etc.
In 1994 Weld County ranked seventh in the state relative to Women In Need(WIN) of family
planning services, serving 1817 (28.8%) clients out of a total estimated 6299 WIN. Other indices
of need include a consistent high adolescent pregnancy rate, and consistently high percentage of
pregnant women who delay prenatal care after the first trimester compared to the state of
Colorado.
The number of births to women under 19 years of age who have had previous deliveries,
averages 20 % over the last five years. This age group represents a high risk population that
needs to be targeted.
The failure rate for family planning clinic appointments was 25% for 1997, another consistent
and disturbing trend.
Project Goal:
Reduce.by 10% unintended pregnancies in the WIN population by the year 2000.
By July 1999, increase the WIN population served by Weld County Health Department by 10%.
Project Objectives:
(1) Continue to conduct a Bi-weekly walk-in family planning clinic at Monfort Children's
Clinic.
Services available to both men and women are : "Quick Start" birth control, free pregnancy
tests, referrals, and education. There will be telephone and mail follow up with those women
who access the "Quick Start" method and an incentive given to those who return for their initial
exam.
Evaluation: This element of the project will be evaluated based on the number of women
and couples served, the number of women counseled that enroll in the regular health department
family planning clinic, that meet the criteria of the WIN target population. The department's
computerized encounter tracking system will provide the data required for evaluation.
9S//049
(2) By July 1, 1999 reduce the health department's failure rate by 10%
Analysis of client failure rates indicate that approximately 75% of failures are for annual
exams. The department will begin sending reminders with telephone follow-up of
women due for annual exams to reduce the failure rate,
Evaluation: Failure rates will be monitored on a monthly basis to observe trends. Data is
available from the monthly workload measures report generated by the computerized
encounter system.
(3) By December 1, 1999 provide on a bi-weekly basis outreach, counseling and education
services to the Island Grove Domestic Violence Intervention Program, A Womens Place, and the
Women's Transitional House. One on one counseling will be made available on an "on- call"
basis to the above facilities.
Evaluation: This element of the proposal will be evaluated based on the establishment of the
outreach sites, the number of women counseled, the number of WIN who enroll in the health
departments family planning program.
Evaluation:
Each objective of the proposal includes an evaluation component. Ultimate evaluation will of
course be determined based upon the effectiveness of each individual component and its impact
upon reducing the number of unintended pregnancies among WIN eligible women.

From John Pickle, Director, Health Dep
Subject: Proposal for Funding to Reduce Unint ed Pregnancies in the
Women in Need Population
Enclosed for Board review and approval is a proposal to the Colorado Department of Public
Health and Environment for continuation funding for Weld County Health Department's
outreach project to reduce unintended pregnancy. During the past seven months, we used this
funding to develop outreach activities at Monfort Children's Clinic where we served 90 clients,
48% of whom were teens.
For these outreach activities, we are requesting $15,000 for the time period August 1, 1998 to
June 30, 1999. This is approximately the same amount we received last year.
I recommend your approval of this proposal.
