A new study conducted by the Center for Children and Families reports that government programs aimed to reduce the number of unintended pregnancies are economically beneficial. Such programs save taxpayers between $2 and $6 for every $1 spent.
Moreover, the researchers found that the media campaign aimed at promoting safe sex could save taxpayers up to $431 million per year, and sex education and programs aimed at preventing pregnancy could save up to $356 annually. Increased access to family planning through Medicaid leads to the greatest savings for taxpayers, with total savings of $1.32 billion if an investment of $235 million is put into the program.
