Since 2006, the Clinical Training Center for Sexual and Reproductive Health (CTC-SRH) has offered evidence-based clinical training and resources to healthcare providers in Title X settings. Formerly known as the National Clinical Training Center for Family Planning (NCTCFP), we are funded by the Office of Population Affairs at the Department of Health and Human Services to provide training and technical assistance to Title X Clinical Services Providers.
Our goal is to serve Title X clinical services providers to increase their capacity to deliver high-quality sexual and reproductive health services. Recognizing that Title X clinics serve a diverse group of people, we design, develop, and implement our trainings and resources with a focus on quality, equity, and access at the core. We affirm the need for men's health in Title X projects as well as services for anyone who can become pregnant, including cisgender women, transgender men, nonbinary people, and others.
The CTC-SRH is managed by the Collaborative to Advance Health Services at the University of Missouri-Kansas City. Learn more about our team.
We provide training and resources for Title X clinicians and the broader sexual and reproductive health provider workforce to increase quality, equity, and access in the healthcare field. While CTC-SRH is funded to serve Title X clinical services providers, our training and resources may benefit anyone who sees clients. We have worked with both individual providers and entire care teams at the service site, sub-recipient, and grantee levels of Title X-funded organizations for the past 17 years.
Here are ways we are training the nation’s sexual and reproductive health clinical workforce:
Founded as the National Clinical Training Center for Family Planning (NCTCFP) in 2006, we changed our name to the Clinical Training Center for Sexual and Reproductive Health (CTC-SRH) in 2023. We have been funded by the Office of Population Affairs at the Department of Health and Human Services since inception and remain the primary source of clinical training for those providing sexual and reproductive health care in federally-funded settings.
Having served the Title X network for nearly two decades, our team of clinical experts recognized that the term “family planning” falls short of describing the client-centered and inclusive sexual and reproductive health services we offer, especially in an increasingly urgent and rapidly shifting healthcare landscape.
The newly-renamed Clinical Training Center for Sexual and Reproductive Health (CTC-SRH) continues to provide evidence-based clinical training and resources to healthcare providers in Title X settings through increased healthcare quality, equity, and access.
