| Description: | This is the third national survey undertaken by the Crisis Pregnancy Programme (CPP
(formerly the Crisis Pregnancy Agency)). The first, The Irish Contraception and Crisis
Pregnancy Study (ICCP), was commissioned in 2002 when the Crisis Pregnancy Agency
(CPA) was first established. ICCP was designed to establish baseline measures for crisis
pregnancy prevalence in addition to a broad range of sexual health indicators related to
crisis pregnancy. These indicators did not exist in an Irish context prior to this survey.
A second, much larger sexual health survey was undertaken in 2004 with the Department
of Health and Children: the Irish Study of Sexual Health and Relationships (ISSHR). This
was a much larger piece of work, with double the sample size of the earlier survey. The
ISSHR addressed a much broader range of behaviours, including behaviours among the
population with experience of same-sex relationships exclusively. The ISSHR mirrored
international studies undertaken in the field, both in its scale and its measures.
This third survey, The Irish Contraception and Crisis Pregnancy Study (ICCP) 2010, allows
us to assess the impacts of the CPP’s work since 2003. Two national strategies have
been implemented since the establishment of the former Crisis Pregnancy Agency. A
significant investment has been made in sexual health protection and crisis pregnancy
activities over a ten-year period. It is important to analyse the work that has been
undertaken and assess its impact. Several kinds and levels of data are required to do this
successfully. Survey data capturing key measures is one key component. |
