Go With The Flow: The Fight For Menstrual Equality

Our group is focusing on menstrual equity and the stigma around periods. So many women in America are living on or below the poverty line, and many of those women don’t have access to menstrual products such as pads, tampons and menstrual cups. These women are forced to use unsanitary items, like toilet paper, paper bags, socks and even leaves. We are working with various organizations and our goal is to break the stigma around menstruation.
