This study of 974 homeless women surveyed in Los Angeles County in 1997 included 457 who were at risk for unintended pregnancy. The authors identified correlates of failure to use contraception among homeless women at risk for unintended pregnancy. Results showed that homeless women, including those at apparently low risk for unintended pregnancy, need to be targeted with integrated services that include education, a regular source of medical care, and encouragement to use contraception.
