In mid-2011, SFP launched the SFP Research Fund, an associated 501©4 corporation that will take over management of SFP's grant program. This grant program is intended both to build knowledge and to promote academic excellence in the field of family planning. We support scientific research that can strengthen family planning policies, services and programs in a variety of ways—from advances in underlying conceptual or biomedical knowledge to assessments of programs or policies that will provide family planning more safely, effectively, efficiently, and to wider groups of people in need.
