Prior Research: Training among Healthcare Providers: In 2014, RWHC surveyed 508 US healthcare providers to assess awareness of FGC, prior training exposure, and current approaches to care for women affected by FGC. Results showed widespread knowledge gaps among providers, with 81% expressing a desire for further education/training on FGC. Results also showed that exposure to FGC training and direct clinical care encounters with FGC-affected populations predicted increased competency in the care of these women.
