$1.5 Million for Menstruating Georgians
It has been a busy final stretch under the Gold Dome. The final 2019-2020 Budget passed this week with an important addition. Thank you to all the advocates, delegates, and communities who have rallied and continue to rally around an end to #periodpoverty!
$1 million was added to “increase funds for grants to schools for feminine hygiene products for low-income students.”
$500,000 was added to “increase funds for feminine hygiene products to be provided to low-income clients at county health departments.”
