At next week’s City Council meeting, a motion will be coming forward for free menstrual products to be made available for those who need them at city facilities in order to help address period poverty. We encourage Council to pass this motion. 

The VDLC has been proud to support Period Promise since its launch and to have supported its predecessor, Tampon Tuesday as well.
