I would assume you are providing a health care service for women that wouldn't other wise have it? I would assume that poor and budget-minded middle class women would frequent family clinics more than the well off. Perhaps well-off teenagers would go to a clinic if they were hiding their sexual activity from their parents. But the clientele is not the point, I don't think. Your original complaint was that it didn't create jobs so it wasn't appropriate for a stimulus bill. Whether the jobs created service poor people or the middle class or the wealthy, does it matter from a stimulus perspective? Jobs is jobs. And this is different from family planning how? I didn't intend to suggest that "family planning" was different from "contraception services" if that's your question.
