Working to End Period Poverty - Lunch and Learn

Each year in May, Southcoast Health hosts a donation drive to support the Justice Flow Advocacy Project. Justice Flow works to end period poverty by ensuring menstrual hygiene products are available to those in need, and educating youth and adults on menstrual health, access and equity.

Join us for a discussion about menstrual equity and how the lack of education and access to products impacts our community. Southcoast Health’s community partners will share their insights, advocacy efforts, and solutions to ensure menstrual equity for all.

Panelists:

Gail Fortes, Executive Director, YWCA

April Funches, President and Co-Founder, Taunton Diversity Network Inc.

Wendy Garf-Lipp, Executive Director, United Neighbors

Leimary Llopiz, Advocacy Coordinator, YWCA

Megan Whelan, Director of Client Services, Women’s Resource Center
