Abstract
Two New Mexico state agencies implemented a statewide contraceptive access initiative in a sizable rural border state through the provision of low- or no-cost contraception, provider training and technical assistance, public awareness campaigns, and policy changes. These interventions resulted in successful expansion of reproductive health services provision and contraceptive use among Medicaid-enrolled adolescents and young women of reproductive age between 2014 and 2020. These findings demonstrate how multilevel interventions can expand contraceptive access, even in rural limited-provider settings.
