SUMMARY:A Quest to End Period Poverty: Panel Discussion with a UNICORN
DESCRIPTION:YES\, we are HAVING this conversation! YES\, we are ready to be part of UNICORN's "seismic shift in how society views basic human needs!" and YES\, we can "imagine a realm where period products grace every stall\, just like toilet paper." \n\nPlease join us for a this important panel discussion featuring UNICORN Co-CEO's\,Thyme Sullivan and Denielle Finkelstein.  UNICORN seeks to transform the way businesses perceive period products\, inspiring them to embrace these essentials as a janitorial expense. We advocate for a magical shift in mindset\, striving to vanquish period poverty and empower everyone to flourish. UNICORN champions this enchanting vision\, partnering with visionary businesses to provide period products in every stall\, creating a world that sparkles with comfort and care. \n\nPeriod Poverty:  Period poverty describes the struggle many low-income women and girls face while trying to afford menstrual products. The term also refers to the increased economic vulnerability women and girls face due the financial burden posed by menstrual supplies.\n\nPeriod Poverty in our schools: 66% stated they don't want to be in school during their period. 84% have missed a class or know someone who missed it because they don't have access to menstrual products. 83% of teens believe that the impact of period poverty is not talked about enough. 79% feel that they lack proper education about menstrual health.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOne in 5 girls in America miss school because of their periods.\n\n \n\nDo we have your attention?\n\nAdditional magical guests include:\n\nKenzie Blackwell (Founder and Director\, Free.)
