AMIOF provides a wide range of Sexual and Reproductive Health services through its network of nine (9) family planning centres in Martinique. The centres offer Sexual and Reproductive Health information and education services, counseling services, contraceptive services, pap smears, pregnancy tests, STI/HIV screening, infertility treatment, and gynaecological services, to all residents of the territory. Among the association’s clientele are many migrants from neighbouring Caribbean territories; many of whom seek sexual and reproductive health services from the association due to constraints accessing such services from Government operated facilities in the country. The Association Martiniquaise pour I'Information et l'Orientation Familiales (AMIOF) is part of an umbrella organization known as the Caribbean Family Planning Affiliation Ltd (CFPA). The Caribbean Family Planning Affiliation (CFPA) is the only regional non-governmental organization (NGO) devoted to family planning and sexual and reproductive health in the Caribbean. CFPA serves 13 island Member Associations and 5 Associate Member Associations in the Caribbean, Central and South America. It supports these Associations with technical assistance and materials, and represents their collective interests at IPPF meetings and in the Caribbean region among governments and NGOs. CFPA Member Associations are located in Anguilla, Antigua, Aruba, Bahamas, Bermuda, Curacao, Dominica, Grenada, Guadeloupe, Martinique, Nevis and St. Kitts, St. Lucia and St. Vincent. CFPA Associate Member Associations are located in Belize, Barbados, Guyana, Jamaica, Suriname, and Trinidad and Tobago. The CFPA does not offer any clinical services or distribute family planning methods to clients, but rather focuses its work on governance and institution-building among its Member Associations. The CFPA oversees, manages and analyses core grants to 7 Caribbean Member Associations. The CFPA also submits project proposals for donor funding on behalf of the Associations.
