EZEC

Officially launched in February of 2022, EZ EC aims to provide safe, free, and confidential emergency contraceptive across our lake shore campus.

EZ EC operates 7 days a week until 8 pm. Our current committee is made up of 7 individuals who handle the inventory, distribution, and packing of this service.

This operates strictly as a need-based service, and runs on donations from other organizations as well as our student body. There is a suggested $8 donation for every order.

How Emergency Contraceptive works

There are two ways to prevent pregnancy after unprotected sex. The first way is a paraguard IUD, which must be inserted within 120 hours or 5 days of the sex. The second way is the emergency contraceptive pill, or the morning after pill. This is what we currently provide to our students.

How we get our EC

Our EC currently comes from 3 sources. The first source is from an organization called EC 4 EC, which helped with the launch of our service. EC 4 EC aims to provide free emergency contraceptives to every campus in need. We also have a partnership with AfterPill. Additionally, we receive EC from Plan B Onestep’s free contraception service and receive the product by mail.
