In a Post Roe world, the right for bodily and reproductive autonomy is under attack. This month we go over what’s been happing with states decisions, college students choice of schools, and how this decision has affected the safety of period tracking apps. At PVDPERIOD. we believe in a person’s right to choose what they want to do with their body. We see period poverty and period equity in conjunction with reproductive justice as essential public health policy and as a human rights issue.

Our 1 Year Anniversary!
1 year ago we started this venture with one goal in mind: to provide free period products for menstruators in Providence, RI. There have been many milestones for us, most notably becoming a non-profit organization and partnering with TOP - the organic project. But for us it comes down to the numbers: 1 year, 1 mission, 24,000 period products donated!
