Christian Connections for International Health (CCIH), a U.S.- based nonprofit membership organization commissioned a Family Planning (FP) survey of faith-based facility-based private not-for-profit (FB-PNFP) health facilities in Uganda in 2013. Country-wide health facilities of the Uganda Orthodox Church Medical Bureau (UOMB), the Uganda Muslim Medical Bureau (UMMB), the Uganda Catholic Medical Bureau (UCMB), and the Uganda Protestant Medical Bureau (UPMB) were contacted by phone and interviewed with established questions related to family planning, contraceptive security, maternal and newborn health.
