Be in the Know with Aunt Flow: An Interactive Intro to Menstrual Equity
Tuesday, October 11th from 11:30 am - 12 pm | Facility Solutions Booth #3242
Get your game face on! The Aunt Flow team will be leading rounds of trivia to educate and share knowledge on the menstrual equity movement. Menstrual Equity refers to the affordability, accessibility, and safety of period products. Participants will learn how to create equitable bathroom spaces and ensure accessibility for menstruators. Whether or not you have a period, this interactive workshop is for all who want to create meaningful change (and a chance to receive prizes)!
Join the Menstrual Movement!
More than 17 US states have passed legislation requiring businesses, public spaces or schools to offer freely accessible period products.
86% of women reportedly started their period in public without the supplies they needed. Providing Aunt Flow period products recuperates lost work hours and is just the freakin’ right thing to do.
Over 1,000 companies including Google, Netflix, Princeton University, and more are supplying Aunt Flow to their students and guests, and you can too!
