Minister Responsible for the Status of Women Office Laura Ross announced this week this fall, in addition to 670 elementary and high schools, nine post-secondary institutions and six private vocational schools will receive free menstrual products.
The partnership between the Government of Saskatchewan and Shoppers Drug Mart strives to provide students in need have access to free period products.
The government says 435,000 products will be delivered to post-secondary institutions across the province. And through the partnership with the Shoppers Foundation for Women’s Health, the province will receive 12 million free products over three years. Shoppers donates the products, and Saskatchewan’s Status of Women Office manages the distribution.
