A diagnostic study of the provision and use of contraception in postpartum, post-abortion, and prevention of mother to child transmission (PMTCT) programs in the Dominican Republic was conducted with funding from USAID’s Latin American and the Caribbean Bureau. The objectives of the study were to assess the contraceptive knowledge, attitudes and behaviors of providers and clients, the degree to which information, counseling and delivery are implemented in postpartum, post-abortion and PMTCT services, the quality of these services and the readiness of postpartum, post-abortion and PMTCT services to offer contraceptive services.
