SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Recipient: Every Body Texas, Austin,
TX.
Purpose of the Award: The purpose of
this award is to address the anticipated
need for family planning services across
the state of Texas in response to TX
SB8. With this funding, Every Body
Texas will expand the provision of
emergency contraception and other
family planning services to clients
across the state of Texas through their
existing Title X network.
Amount of Award: $750,000.
Project Period: The project period for
the supplemental award will not exceed
the recipient’s current project period,
which is scheduled to end on March 31,
2022.
OPA currently provides $15,820,000
in Title X funding to Every Body Texas.
With their Title X funding, Every Body
Texas provides Title X family planning
services across Texas through a network
of 36 subrecipients and 192 service
sites. In 2019, Every Body Texas
provided family planning services to
176,697 clients across the State of
Texas.
Supplemental funding will enable
Every Body Texas to expand provision
of emergency contraception and other
family planning services to clients
across the state of Texas through their
existing Title X network, in response to
TX SB8. Title X family planning
services are services that assist in
preventing or achieving pregnancy. Title
X clinics must provide a broad range of
acceptable and effective family planning
methods and services, including:
Contraceptive education, counseling,
and methods (includes hormonal
methods; fertility awareness-based
methods; barrier methods; abstinence;
and/or permanent sterilization); services
centered around pre-conception health
and achieving pregnancy (includes
infertility services; STI prevention,
education, screening, and treatment;
HIV testing and referral); and pregnancy
diagnosis and counseling. The broad
range of family planning services does
not include abortion as a method of
family planning.
This award is being made noncompetitively because Every Body
Texas is the only existing Title X
grantee providing services across the
entire state of Texas. Issuing a singlesource supplemental award to Every
Body Texas would expand services
across the entire state.
