Federal funding fight threatens Kansas family planning
KDHE receives 2.5 million dollars yearly in federal funding and 97 thousand dollars in state money to run family planning through 55 contracts with health departments and clinics. In Douglas County the Lawrence-Douglas County Health Department notes 198 thousand dollars from KDHE and about 300 thousand for its clinic, funded largely by fees and local taxes. If federal funding ends, CEO Peter Brownlie of Planned Parenthood Kansas and Mid-Missouri warns services could shrink, affecting low income families and risking more unintended pregnancies.
