A Step Ahead Foundation of Middle Tennessee hopes to improve educational, economic, and health outcomes for women and their children in Nashville and Middle Tennessee. By providing access to long-acting reversible contraception (LARC) the most effective reversible methods of birth control, we hope to increase positive pregnancy outcomes for both the mother and the child, lower infant mortality, and improve family life. We hope to decrease poverty by reducing economic strain and encourage career opportunities before child birth. We provide a means for women to plan each child and every step of her life through education and long-acting reversible contraception (LARC). A Step Ahead Foundation of Middle Tennessee obtained its 501(c)(3) non-profit status on September 1, 2015. We partner with three existing community clinics providing the medical services for long-acting reversible contraception (LARC). A Step Ahead Foundation of Middle Tennessee is being pro-active raising awareness in our community by partnering with community centers, clinics, Department of Health Services, and by educating our schools and social workers.
