At CART-GRAC, our aim is equitable access to family planning knowledge, services and methods, supporting all women and families to be able to plan and space their pregnancies.

Our Purpose

Supporting women to plan and space their pregnancies provides a wide range of benefits to society, to children and to their families. In Canada, nearly half of all pregnancies are unintended, and 31% of women have at least one abortion in their lifetime.
