Western Counties Regional Library is offering free menstrual products at its 10 library branches.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cThe library is committed to creating social equity, ensuring access for all individuals,\u201d says library Executive Director Erin Comeau. \u201cPeriod poverty is a growing social issue. Our libraries are in 10 communities throughout southwest Nova Scotia and we are well positioned to help ease the strain on those who would otherwise have difficulty accessing menstrual products.\u201d<\/p>\n

The initiative is funded by the Nova Scotia provincial government and will reduce barriers to good health and increase access to menstruation products.<\/span><\/p>\n

Library branches in Barrington, Clark\u2019s Harbour, Digby, Lockeport, Meteghan, Pubnico, Shelburne, Westport, Weymouth and Yarmouth have menstrual product dispensers in their public washrooms.<\/p>\n
