AMARILLO, TEXAS -- As expected, funding cuts in Austin are trickling down and beginning to affect local operations like the Haven Health Clinics.

Earlier this month, those facilities learned that the state cut their funding for Title Ten and Title Twenty, which are government programs that allow the clinics to provide healthcare to those who can't afford it. The cuts also affect the clinics' ability to provide services to teenagers without parental consent.

"If a teenage needs to have birth control, they cannot come to us without their parental consent and that may mean that some teenagers don't get birth control and therefore that may drive up the teenage pregnancy rate", said CEO of Haven Health Clinics, Ron Barwick.

The funding cuts meant Haven had to cut their own budget by about a million dollars.
