Menstrual Equity: What It Is and Why It Matters

Menstrual equity is not just about addressing the needs of low-income populations. Affordability is one thing; sheer availability is another. Menstrual equity has no regard for your socioeconomic status; even the richest woman in the world has at one point in her life gone to the bathroom, gotten her period, and did not have access to a period product. Come be a part of this enlightening discussion about the importance of menstrual equity, reproductive health, how period poverty affects New Jerseyans state-wide, and how you can help make a difference. Presented by Eiko La Boria, founder and CEO of The Flow Initiative, along with a representative from Blue Cross Blue Shield of New Jersey.
