Abstract	Adolescents often face hurdles that may interfere with accessing contraceptive services. School-based health centers (SBHCs) are available to many teens in the United States; however, only half of SBHCs that serve adolescents are permitted to provide contraception. The aim of this descriptive phenomenological study was to describe the lived experience of nurse practitioners (NPs) providing contraceptive care to teens in SBHCs. Twelve NPs were interviewed and Colaizzi's method of descriptive phenomenological analysis was used to describe the lived experience of NPs providing contraceptive care to adolescents in SBHCs. Three themes emerged: Contraception is an Essential Part of Care for Teens Using SBHCs; Frustration! There are so Many Hurdles to Negotiate; and Walking a Fine Line. Despite the restrictions on SBHC services and the hurdles the NPs encountered, they remained committed to providing contraceptive services and seized available opportunities to provide health education and support for the adolescents accessing the SBHCs. (As Provided).
