In recent years, federal funding for Title X has shrunk, and now fewer low-income and uninsured people across the country are able to access family planning and sexual health services funded by Title X.
As a result, New Jersey is receiving less money to provide patients the quality care they count on all across the state.

The statewide Title X project experienced the elimination of the $7.5 million in state funding in 2010. This, coupled with the Title X reductions from 2011 and 6% federal sequestration cut in 2013, resulted in a 24% decrease in patients and defunded four family planning agency projects.
WHY TITLE X MATTERS
Even with the Affordable Care Act, 30 million are left out.
I rely on my provider to provide quality care when
I need it.
My provider is trustworthy and supportive. It’s where I prefer to go to get the high-quality health care
I count on.
6 out of 10 women who turn to Title X family planning say it is their regular source for care.
Title X guarantees confidentiality protections that cannot be found elsewhere.
