NFP or Natural Family Planning an the Couple
to Couple League
www.ccli.org
Couples worldwide are choosing Natural Family
Planning (NFP) for its healthful and marriage-building qualities, as well as its
usefulness to plan or postpone pregnancy. Many couples are also grateful to use
a family planning method that is in harmony with their religious beliefs.
Since its founding in 1971, CCL has provided instruction through NFP classes
taught by professionally trained, volunteer couples who teach in their local
communities. You can also learn through their acclaimed Home Study Course,
available for order.
Learn how NFP works and its advantages in the
About NFP section, and discover what the CCL organization is all about at About
CCL. The Online Store contains many supportive books, videos, and audiotapes, as
well as NFP materials. Finally, you can easily locate your nearest CCL Teaching
Couple with our online search at Learn NFP.

Home Study: The CCL Home Study Course
For those couples who do not have a local CCL Teaching Couple, or for those
whose schedule prevents them from attending a local class series, CCL offers the
CCL Home Study Course. You can learn NFP in the comfort of your home and at your
own pace with this easy-to-follow course on the Sympto-Thermal Method. You
receive all the necessary materials you need plus a valuable service — a
professional review of your first three charts.
What materials and services are included?
- YOUR GUIDE to the CCL HOME STUDY COURSE
provides you with the guidance you need to work your way through the course.
- THE ART OF NATURAL FAMILY PLANNING, the CCL
user's manual that has been updated continually since its first publication
in 1972.
- ONE DIGITAL BASAL TEMPERATURE THERMOMETER
for taking a woman's waking temperature each morning.
- A YEAR'S SUPPLY OF CYCLE CHARTS for
recording your daily observations.
- ADDITIONAL BROCHURES AND PAMPHLETS —
informational materials on related subjects such as . . . the Pill,
breastfeeding, sterilization, etc.
- A YEAR'S SUBSCRIPTION TO CCL'S BI-MONTHLY
MAGAZINE — Family Foundations, our popular magazine that keeps you
up-to-date on NFP and provides support you’ll find helpful as you adopt the
NFP lifestyle.
- PERSONAL CHART REVIEW in addition to the
materials just listed, you'll also receive a valuable service — our
professional review of your first three cycle-charts. As soon as you've
finished charting your first cycle, you send us a copy. We'll review your
charting and offer helpful comments. You do the same for as many cycles as
needed, however, most couples do well without further review after three
cycles.
What are the advantages of the CCL Home Study
Course?
- CONVENIENCE You learn it on your own…in the
comfort of your own home…at the pace which meets your schedule.
- QUALITY INSTRUCTION The step-by-step,
easy-to-follow instructions of the CCL Home Study Course have been
thoroughly tested by couples just like you — and it works!!!
- QUALITY MATERIALS The basic materials used
in the CCL Home Study Course which teaches the Sympto-Thermal Method have
been regularly updated and reviewed since being introduced in 1972 . . .
insuring that you receive the latest and most up-to-date materials and
information.
- PERSONAL COUNSELING This is a unique feature
of the CCL Home Study Course; it's not just materials, but service!
- CONTINUED FOLLOW-UP With your one-year
subscription to Family Foundations, you will be constantly in touch with the
latest NFP findings.
What is the cost of the CCL Home Study Course?
The CCL Home Study Course is $70.95, plus
shipping and handling, and provides you with lifelong knowledge of your
fertility cycle. The only ongoing costs is for a new booklet of charts
approximately once a year ($2.50), and an occasional new thermometer ($14.00).
These costs are a fraction of what a couple would
spend on artificial birth control over the course of their fertile years.
Satisfaction Guaranteed
They are so convinced you'll be happy with the
CCL Home Study Course that if, after looking over the materials, you are not
satisfied that the CCL Home Study Course is a very complete and usable way to
learn Natural Family Planning, then return all materials to them within 30 days
to receive a complete refund.
To order, visit thier online store, or call the
CCL Order Department at 1-800-745-8252.
