PIP: In the Philippines, the Women's Health Care Foundation (WHCF) provides comprehensive health care, information, and training services to women throughout their life cycle. It targets young women, especially students and prostitutes. It operates 3 clinics in Metro Manila. Each clinic is staffed by women, including a physician, nurses, or midwives, and a medical technologist. They serve patients during hours when government health facilities are closed. Key services include prenatal care, family planning, delivery services, counseling, and diagnosis and management of reproductive tract infection and sexually transmitted diseases. The clinics provide quality care to all clients regardless of ability to pay, motive, profession, social and marital status, age, and health condition. Clients make their own decisions about health and reproductive care. Staff treat clients with respect and accord them privacy. Its outreach program conducts focus group discussions in poor communities to determine seminar topics and provides free clinics in these communities. It plans on doing information, education, and communication activities revolving around family planning for businesses that employ fewer than 50 workers, particularly women. It also hopes to conduct an AIDS information campaign. The Foundation has established the Institute for Social Studies and Action to address training, research, and evaluation needs. It plans on publishing research results to serve as a basis for decision makers to design policies, legislation, and programs. WHCF has established a good working relationship with other women's health nongovernmental organizations, government agencies, and with international organizations, e.g., Johns Hopkins University's Center for Communication Programs.
