2024 Income Eligibility Guidelines Every Woman Counts (EWC) Program
The Health and Human Services (HHS), Federal Poverty Guidelines (FPG), are used to determine financial eligibility for the Every Woman Counts (EWC) Program. To qualify for breast and cervical cancer screening services, recipients must have a family/household 1 income at or below 200 percent of the HHS FPG.
The following table lists the EWC income eligibility guidelines based on the 2024 HHS, FPG 2.
1) A family/household is a group of two or more persons who are related by birth, marriage, or adoption and who live together.
2) The poverty guidelines are updated periodically in the Federal Register by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services under the authority of 42 U.S.C. 9902(2). The EWC Program income eligibility guidelines are updated accordingly based on the HHS FPG.
3) Monthly “gross household income” means the sum of incomes (before taxes and other deductions) of the person(s) in the family/household living in the household from sources identified by the U.S. Census Bureau. Monthly gross income for migrant farm workers and other seasonally employed persons may be computed by averaging gross income received during the previous 12 months.

Do I want to continue the pregnancy? and Do I want to parent a child?
Ask Yourself These Questions:
- Am I able to give a child what it needs—emotionally and financially?
- Will I have to count on my parents or family for help? Are they willing and able to do so? Will they pressure me to do what they want?
- Can I raise a child and meet my own needs? To finish school? Support myself? Start a career?
- Am I ready to become a parent on my own? Will the baby's father be there for me now or in the future?
- What kind of help can my husband/baby’s father give me? Financial? Emotional? Will he help care for the baby?
- Am I too young or too old to have the responsibility of the baby?
- Do I have problems, like drinking or drugs, that will keep me from being a good parent?
- Will my religious or cultural beliefs influence what choice I make?
Choices
You are pregnant and unsure what you want to do. If it is still early in the pregnancy, you have two choices: keeping the baby or planning an adoption. It is important to talk with a counselor about your choice. Keeping the baby is:
- Accepting at least 18 years of responsibility for a child
- Giving up your freedom in order to meet a child’s needs
- Changing your social life, your sleep patterns, and your daily schedule
- Having patience and love to deal with the 24-hour-a-day needs of the baby
- Adapting both your education and career goals with the baby in mind
Abortion Is
- Ending the pregnancy
- Having a simple surgical procedure done early in the pregnancy or taking pills.
- Going through both physical and emotional changes after the procedure
- A decision that you may feel both relieved and sad about
Adoption Is
- A loving but difficult choice that means giving birth without parenting
- Choosing between two types of adoption
Open Adoption means
- Choosing the family, meeting them, and maybe spending time with them
- Perhaps having the family help you with medical care and other needs
- Continuing contact with them after the baby is born if you desire
Closed/Private Adoption means
- Not meeting the family who adopts your baby
- Not having on going contact with them
- Perhaps having the family help you with medical care and other needs
