NFP Medical Consultants (Doctors who support/promote NFP)
The Natural Family Planning (NFP) department at the Family Life / Respect Life Office is dedicated to helping men & women live in harmony with God's plan for life and love, while strengthening marriages and families. We partner with highly-trained and caring individuals as well as couples who practice and teach NFP to others. Through introductory classes offered throughout the Archdiocese of New York year round, these trained professionals explain how NFP is 99% effective and 100% natural. Through private and/or small group follow-up sessions, couples learn practical approaches to NFP, and how it can help them achieve or postpone pregnancy, as well as enhance their relationship.

Couple to Couple Method Teaching Couples
CCL Teaching Couples are well-trained, and provide very professional instruction and consultation in NFP. And while it is possible to learn the method in other ways without a Teacher (Home Study Course, CD, video), as a Teaching Couple you can provide something that just can’t be as effectively replaced with a book, CD or DVD — your own witness, experience, and passion for living out your marriage as God intended. CCL teachers serve in a particular way. Teaching Couples are very knowledgeable of NFP, but are also capable of witnessing to their virtuous use of NFP in a way that shows they are responsible parents. To learn more about becoming a CCL teaching couple or promoter, please contact Erik Tozzi at eatozzi@verizon.net
