Magadan Center Tackles Reproductive Health with Crisis Support and Education

The Magadan Maternal and Child Health Center is taking steps to support reproductive health and prevent abortions. This forms part of the national project Long and Active Life. The centre offers a range of services aimed at women in crisis and the wider community. A key focus of the centre is educating women about family planning. It ensures they receive timely support during unplanned pregnancies. To spread awareness, the centre runs campaigns using outdoor and indoor adverts as well as printed materials.

Medical psychologists from the centre also deliver lectures in libraries. These sessions target high school and university students, covering medical aspects of reproduction and psychological readiness for parenthood. The centre’s work extends to social advertising and psychological counselling.

For immediate help, women in crisis can call a free helpline at 8-800-200-0-492. The centre works with nonprofits like Kolyma for Life to provide broader assistance to those in difficult situations. The centre’s efforts combine education, psychological support, and public awareness to promote reproductive health. Its partnership with local organisations strengthens the network of help available. Women can access these services through direct contact or community outreach programmes.
