FreeBCSM was created from a simple belief: access to birth control shouldn't depend on where you live, how much you can afford, or how confusing the process can feel. Getting birth control shouldn't be complicated. It should be easy, respectful of your choices, and free.
Our goal is simple
Make free birth control accessible to everyone and provide clear, trustworthy information so you can feel confident choosing what’s right for you.
We believe birth control should be free
Because your ability to plan your life shouldn’t depend on cost, where you live, or how complicated the system feels.
FreeBC is an initiative of Upstream USA, a national nonprofit with over a decade of experience advancing patient-centered contraceptive care through clinical and provider partnerships across the country.
