Free Menstrual Products in Federally Regulated Workplaces!
Canada
We did it! Free menstrual products will be rolled out in all federally regulated workspaces as of Dec 15, 2023. This is a HUGE win for Canadians and advocates and we hope this will pick up with private sector workplaces as well!
From the HFH community:
"Here for Her inspired me to keep speaking out for what I believe in (transgender and non binary health). You held space for people like me who were suffering in silence. So grateful for the community your team has built!"
