What The Period Project?

The Period Project provides education to schools, shelters, churches and community leaders.

The lack of access to menstrual health products is often a misunderstood or an utterly unknown issue in the United States. Menstrual health products are necessities but are not available in many schools, shelters, and communities to menstruators and students in need.

The Period Project works with school nurses and principals to create an understanding of the pressing issue. Menstrual health products are one of the least donated items to and shelters causing more shame for the person already struggling with homelessness.

In 20 of 50 United States, these products are taxed. In addition to providing education, we also work as advocates in our community and to our legislators.
