What We Offer

This makes it easy to make an appointment by call 901-320-STEP.

All clients can get a free Lyft ride to and from their appointment. Rides are arranged by the call center when you call to make an appointment.

If you are not sure which birth control method is right for you and your body, the medical professionals at our partner clinics will talk through the decision with you to help you decide the best method for you.

A Step Ahead Foundation believes in best medical practices and provides a bundle of services with your appointment for long-term reversible birth control. These may include; pregnancy test, STI/STD testing, PAP smear, cost of the birth control and the cost for the medical providers time.

If you don’t have insurance we will cover the full cost. Our goal is to ensure that all Shelby County women can access low maintenance, highly effective, reversible birth control with no out of pocket cost. A Step Ahead Foundation is here to make sure that you never get a bill for your birth control appointment through us. We do this by serving as the payer of last resort. That means the clinic will charge TennCare, Title X or your private insurance but if there are any left over costs A Step Ahead Foundation will pay them.

A Step Ahead Foundation only provides the most effective methods of birth control including IUDs and implants. All of our birth control is reversible, so it can be removed by a health care provider at any time.
