Virginia students are missing school over period products

Based on a 2023 survey, did you know about 1 in 4 teenagers are unable to complete schoolwork because they lack necessary period products?

Virginia law requires schools to offer necessary hygiene items like pads and tampons for free—but without state funding, many can’t. For the second year in a row, lawmakers left a proposed $250K grant out of the 2025 Virginia General Assembly budget, forcing students to rely on donations or go without.

Until the state provides funding, nonprofits and communities are left to fill the gap.
