Menstrual Hygiene Products

Menstrual Hygiene Products are integral to many student’s mental, physical and emotional health. It is very important to ensure equal educational access to people of all genders and socioeconomic statuses. Nearly 1 in 4 students experience period poverty. Menstruation should not be stigmatized, and providing easy access to menstrual hygiene products is a step towards solving period poverty and menstrual health.
