In the inaugural episode of Women Making Moves, Amy talks to Michela Bedard, the Executive Director of PERIOD. PERIOD. is a global youth-powered non-profit that strives to end period poverty and stigma through advocacy, education, and service. PERIOD. equips and trains youth leaders with the tools and resources needed to end period poverty in their lifetime.
Two key stats - 1 in 4 students in the U.S. cannot afford period products and 30% of young people who menstruate for the first time don't know what's happening in their bodies.
