Menstrual equity means more than access to products.

It supports health, education, employment, dignity, cultural connection, and stronger Communities.

The Menstrual Equity Fund has helped Moon Time Connections build meaningful, Indigenous-led solutions from Coast to Coast to Coast.

But this work cannot end when the need remains.

Canada should not allow a successful federal pilot to end when the need it was designed to address remains.

Permanent funding means lasting impact.
