Period Poverty is an issue affecting millions of people in the US alone, and in the face of this inequity, many public and private initiatives have been created to address this problem with varying degrees of success. By surveying students and interviewing public and community administrators, we have uncovered how these systems can improve to most effectively meet the needs of the communities they seek to serve. While often the primary complaint of menstruators who utilize these resources are that they are often understocked, this paper explores many other improvements which students would benefit from - such as more streamlined communication systems, improved quality and variety of products, and more efficient operational relationships.
