Abstract
Period poverty and limited menstrual health literacy disproportionately affect adolescents and underserved communities, contributing to stigma, missed school and work, and delayed reproductive care. This project focused on providing dignified bathroom-based education, allowing for easily accessible menstrual health information. The educational initiative aligned with a wider community health project, aiming to provide free menstrual products in community and clinic bathrooms. This model demonstrates a scalable approach to improving menstrual equity, education, and product access.
