Strategies

Establish roads that avoid built-up areas such as towns, cities, or commercial/business districts

Provide women with information about the risks and benefits of behaviors that affect their health before, during, and after pregnancy

Establish plans consistent with personal values and current life circumstances that set goals related to having or not having children; goals often change over time

Establish transportation services for areas with low population densities using publicly funded buses and vans on a set schedule, dial-a-ride transit, volunteer ridesharing, etc.

Ensure appropriate access to 17P, a synthetic version of the hormone progesterone, by identifying high-risk women, reducing barriers to treatment receipt and completion, coordinating care, etc.

Modify the built environment to affect traffic speed and patterns via speed humps, pedestrian center crossing islands, roundabouts, etc.
