“…Between 2018 and 2020, the number of female contraceptive patients served by sites receiving Title X funds dropped by 60% in Arizona, nearly 50% in Iowa, and 80% in Wisconsin, due to a combination of the Trump Administration's Final Rule and the COVID-19 pandemic [10]. Substantial research has documented associations between individuals' demographic characteristics and both general healthcare and SRH service use and outcomes [11,12].
