June is National Indigenous History Month.

We honour First Nations, Inuit, and Métis Peoples: their histories, cultures, and ongoing leadership.

As a network, we have deepened our engagement by inviting network-wide individual and collective reflection, and we continue to reflect on our commitment to reconciliation.

🌸 It’s time to break the stigma.

Menstrual health matters and access to products and education should never be a barrier.

Through the Period Promise campaign, United Way Peterborough & District is working to address period poverty in our communities.

On Menstrual Hygiene Day, we call for dignity, access, and inclusion for all.
