Family planning use increased from 17 to 53% in Rwanda in between 2005 and 2015. The purpose of this study is to understand the roles of two types of family planning workers in providing family planning services, how those providers work together to achieve the goal to provide public services, and how the Rwandan health system includes family planning services in a variety of other types of health services. To achieve the study purpose, 32 women with experience using modern methods of contraception were interviewed. In addition, 88 providers participated in eight group discussions to discuss these topics. The results from the interviews and group discussions showed that family planning services are easy to access for Rwandans­due to two types of family planning providers filling different roles to assist Rwandans start and keep using family planning methods. Family planning services are included in services for pregnant, delivering, and postpartum mothers­as well as services for infants and children. These are all times when those adults using the services would also be in need of family planning services. The family planning service delivery team approach­as well as including family planning services in mother's and children's health services likely helps explain the increase in family planning use in Rwanda. Other nations might learn from Rwanda's service delivery approach to family planning to also increase access to family planning for their citizens.
