Back Up Your Birth Control - ProfilesArchive

About Me

We are the Back Up Your Birth Control Campaign.
The goal of the national Back Up Your Birth Control Campaign is to raise awareness of emergency contraception (EC) and encourage advance provision so every woman has EC on hand before the condom breaks, she forgets to refill her birth control pill prescription, or she has sex when she didnâ€™t want to or plan to. EC is a safe and effective back-up birth control method that significantly reduces the risk of pregnancy after unprotected intercourse or contraception failure.Since 2002, the Back Up Your Birth Control Campaign has provided a message for consumers, a slogan for action, and a strong, flexible organizing platform for the EC advocacy community which can improve awareness, and use of EC, while ultimately reducing rates of unintended pregnancy.Checking out our Talking Points About EC or our new website just for teens!
