    Abstract:
    The Antigua Planned Parenthood Association has initiated a controlle d project to have commerical, nonclinical distribution of contraceptives throughout the country. The government supports the program and has repealed the prescription requirement for oral contraceptives. They will soon be removed from the list of dutiable items, permitting a low retail price. 13 stores have agreed to participate in the project. All contraceptives are supplied at low prices and poor people can receive theirs free. A mass media advertising and informational campaign is planned. Evaluation will be conducted by the Westinghouse Population Center. International contraceptive experts are advising the project.
