Original: Joy and Justice Tour ends in Columbia as advocates tie period poverty to girls' mental health
The Joy and Justice Tour wrapped up in Columbia, South Carolina, where advocates argued that period poverty — the lack of access to menstrual products — takes a measurable toll on girls' mental health. Speakers urged greater awareness and policy action, linking difficulties affording hygiene products to missed school, shame, anxiety and broader emotional strain for young women.
