The single most important thing we all can do to eliminate PERIOD POVERTY and create a society that values MENSTRUAL EQUITY is to talk about periods!

GHGP’s workshops offer a safe, relaxed atmosphere for participants to learn and share, which helps to destigmatize and normalize periods and builds confidence in those who take part.

IYKYK Workshops

Health class may explain why it happens. We show students what to do so they are empowered to care for themselves.

Our focus is on normalizing periods and creating a shared experience so participants understand there is so much support all around them.

We are living in a time of great opportunity to change our own futures. No longer will we be told we should not talk about periods in certain places. Menstruation is a sign of a healthy body, and without knowledge about how our systems work, we cannot safely care for ourselves or others.
