Choosing Childbirth (CCB) funded organizations will provide services, meaning those services that empower women/parents to choose childbirth by providing information, counseling, education and support services that assist pregnant women or women who believe they may be pregnant to choose childbirth and to make informed decisions regarding the choice of adoption or parenting with respect to their children, including additional evidence-based, evidence-informed, or promising practices, early intervention and family support services to maximize their potential thereafter, extending to support the child up to three years of age. The services must be outcome-based with positive results and evaluated with proven methods. Technical support and assistance may be partially or wholly provided by Family Support and Prevention Service within OSDH depending on the program model and services implemented.
