    • Abstract:
      The article discusses the efforts of Christian churches to address period poverty in the U.S. It mentions that trading food stamps for tampons or pads is a prosecutable offense which led many people not to use the products. Among the effects of period poverty are missing work or school leading to loss of income and employment and school underperformance. It mentions the period-related projects of All Saints Catholic Parish in Michigan and Anointed Faith Family Church in Texas, among others.
