Samaj Studio has an ongoing partnership with the Reproductive Health National Training Center - a US government funding program for national reproductive health programs - to offer a variety of creative support and design coaching to its grantees, many of whom focus on teen pregnancy prevention programming. Samaj Studio’s support has ranged from product design support to interactive training sessions to experience design for workshops to advising on creative design research methods with youth. The program is expected to continue until 2025, when it will hopefully be renewed for another round of funding towards reproductive health.
