In low-income families, period supplies can be seen as something non-essential but, having the right supplies to deal with your period can seriously reduce the possibility of infections and improve menstrual hygiene. mlarriviere72 https://padlet.com/mlarriviere72/ggz18ivzggbfsgnk/wish/3398880801 2025-04-07 13:37:51 UTC https://padlet.com/mlarriviere72/ggz18ivzggbfsgnk/wish/3398880801 By schools offering these supplies these students would be less stressed about having to worry about having the right tools to compensate with the thing the happens each month mlarriviere72 https://padlet.com/mlarriviere72/ggz18ivzggbfsgnk/wish/3398881231 2025-04-07 13:38:08 UTC https://padlet.com/mlarriviere72/ggz18ivzggbfsgnk/wish/3398881231 If a student was unable to procure a product to absorb with bleeding then that student would most likely not go to school. However, since the schools would now provide such items, the student wouldn’t need to stay home. mlarriviere72 https://padlet.com/mlarriviere72/ggz18ivzggbfsgnk/wish/3398882088 2025-04-07 13:38:33 UTC https://padlet.com/mlarriviere72/ggz18ivzggbfsgnk/wish/3398882088 "1 in 4 students who menstruate experienced period poverty in 2023 (according to the study by PERIOD.). We know that without period products, these students are more likely to miss class and fall behind in school." mlarriviere72 https://padlet.com/mlarriviere72/ggz18ivzggbfsgnk/wish/3398884716 2025-04-07 13:40:14 UTC https://padlet.com/mlarriviere72/ggz18ivzggbfsgnk/wish/3398884716 By having these products avaliable students wouldn't have to miss valuable educational time because of their period. Not only would attendance increase but more than likely so would test scores, since students would be getting their full education. mlarriviere72 https://padlet.com/mlarriviere72/ggz18ivzggbfsgnk/wish/3398887196 2025-04-07 13:41:45 UTC https://padlet.com/mlarriviere72/ggz18ivzggbfsgnk/wish/3398887196 "2.4% increase in attendance reported among participating NYC schools following passage of law requiring free period products for students" Alliance for periods mlarriviere72 https://padlet.com/mlarriviere72/ggz18ivzggbfsgnk/wish/3398887961 2025-04-07 13:42:16 UTC https://padlet.com/mlarriviere72/ggz18ivzggbfsgnk/wish/3398887961 Students with programs that provide feminine products have said that they have felt more comfortable in schools after the program was installed. Not having to worry about unknowingly walking around campus with a bloodstain can be a real stress reliever to students. mlarriviere72 https://padlet.com/mlarriviere72/ggz18ivzggbfsgnk/wish/3399011194 2025-04-07 14:55:21 UTC https://padlet.com/mlarriviere72/ggz18ivzggbfsgnk/wish/3399011194 "Staying home from school during the menstrual days is culturally dictated in many areas, and there is often a lack of protective sanitary equipment and school restrooms equipped for dealing with menstruation" Putting a stop to the period stigma" mlarriviere72 https://padlet.com/mlarriviere72/ggz18ivzggbfsgnk/wish/3399018889 2025-04-07 15:00:39 UTC https://padlet.com/mlarriviere72/ggz18ivzggbfsgnk/wish/3399018889 "Menstruation needs to be recognized as a natural process by those in the medical sector, women themselves, and the rest of the community." Putting a stop to period stigma mlarriviere72 https://padlet.com/mlarriviere72/ggz18ivzggbfsgnk/wish/3399021226 2025-04-07 15:01:58 UTC https://padlet.com/mlarriviere72/ggz18ivzggbfsgnk/wish/3399021226 "Another type of intervention is directed at providing restroom facilities that cater to this specific need of women, especially to the disposal of used menstrual products. This will avoid the clogging of latrines with these products, which in turn rouses more aversion towards menstruation, as well as allowing safe and quick disposal of used products rather than women having to carry them around with them." Putting a stop to period stigma mlarriviere72 https://padlet.com/mlarriviere72/ggz18ivzggbfsgnk/wish/3399023908 2025-04-07 15:03:51 UTC https://padlet.com/mlarriviere72/ggz18ivzggbfsgnk/wish/3399023908 In recent years people have come out saying that using a tampon has resulted in toxic shock syndrome. While this statement is not entirely false, there is much confusion that surrounds it. To break it down, toxic shock syndrome does not happen just from using a tampon. Instead using a tampon creates an environment that certain bacteria’s that release a toxin that results in the condition. mlarriviere72 https://padlet.com/mlarriviere72/ggz18ivzggbfsgnk/wish/3399153543 2025-04-07 16:30:10 UTC https://padlet.com/mlarriviere72/ggz18ivzggbfsgnk/wish/3399153543 If young girls were able to learn about these things not only would their period be something they wouldn't fear but it could also be something they feel they can freely talk about mlarriviere72 https://padlet.com/mlarriviere72/ggz18ivzggbfsgnk/wish/3399155796 2025-04-07 16:31:28 UTC https://padlet.com/mlarriviere72/ggz18ivzggbfsgnk/wish/3399155796 By having a program that funds and supplies feminine products to students, some people believe that it will get some mature ideas into their child’s head. In this case having a program that contains female hygiene products shouldn’t illicit ideas about sexual acts. Perhaps a sex ed. program would, but this program would only be educating you on how to use sanitary products. mlarriviere72 https://padlet.com/mlarriviere72/ggz18ivzggbfsgnk/wish/3399156478 2025-04-07 16:31:59 UTC https://padlet.com/mlarriviere72/ggz18ivzggbfsgnk/wish/3399156478 In the simplest words, I believe that public schools should be suppling their female students with feminine products. I think that although the negative points are valid, the benefits from the cause are much more important. If you were to be able to make the school environment just a little bit easier for at least half your students, why wouldn’t you? mlarriviere72 https://padlet.com/mlarriviere72/ggz18ivzggbfsgnk/wish/3399158597 2025-04-07 16:33:28 UTC https://padlet.com/mlarriviere72/ggz18ivzggbfsgnk/wish/3399158597 A reduction of period poverty can not only make a student feel better, but it can also relieve some stress from the parents. Instead of having to budget in hygiene products, they can be able to make the money stretch to things beneficial towards the whole family. mlarriviere72 https://padlet.com/mlarriviere72/ggz18ivzggbfsgnk/wish/3399158797 2025-04-07 16:33:39 UTC https://padlet.com/mlarriviere72/ggz18ivzggbfsgnk/wish/3399158797 1.8 billion women in the world have a period each month. Roughly 45% of those 1.8 billion are dealing with this aliment while also being responsible for 7 academic classes. Having an eventful schedule like this, it can be easy to forget things, such as, the day your period is coming. It can be a common occurrence to forget to pack a sanitary pad or tampon for your period, so if schools were to provide these essential products for students, it would make things all the easier for them. mlarriviere72 https://padlet.com/mlarriviere72/ggz18ivzggbfsgnk/wish/3399163264 2025-04-07 16:36:59 UTC https://padlet.com/mlarriviere72/ggz18ivzggbfsgnk/wish/3399163264 "Feminism."
