Fighting for Menstrual Equity in Canada

Menstrual Movement in the Workplace

Our goal is to go beyond delivering period products to people impacted by poverty, but also through advocacy to make long lasting changes. 

With your help, we can raise awareness that menstrual equity means free period products in all bathrooms for all menstruators. Toilet paper and soap is free, we believe period products should be too. Our advocacy has already begun to disrupt the existing system. 

Many thanks to companies who have already joined our Menstrual Movement and support menstrual equity. Can your workplace provide free period products? Will you join our menstrual movement?
