El condado de San Diego est\u00e1 ampliando su programa de productos menstruales gratuitos debido a la gran demanda de tampones y toallas sanitarias gratuitos.<\/p>\n

Desde que se lanz\u00f3 el programa Free 4 Menstrual Equity, o Free4ME, en mayo pasado, el condado ha proporcionado m\u00e1s de 141,000 tampones y toallas sanitarias a trav\u00e9s de los dispensadores de productos menstruales que se instalaron en\u00a024 instalaciones propiedad del condado<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0en toda la regi\u00f3n de San Diego.<\/p>\n

Luego de completar el programa piloto de un a\u00f1o, el condado ahora se est\u00e1 preparando para instalar dispensadores en sitios adicionales del condado.<\/p>\n

Los cupones de alimentos y WIC no cubren la compra de productos menstruales, lo que obliga a muchas personas a racionar los productos sanitarios us\u00e1ndolos durante per\u00edodos prolongados o usando art\u00edculos antihigi\u00e9nicos para controlar sus per\u00edodos. El uso de productos menstruales m\u00e1s all\u00e1 del tiempo recomendado es peligroso y puede causar el s\u00edndrome de shock t\u00f3xico, un tipo de infecci\u00f3n bacteriana.<\/p>\n

\u201cEl programa piloto Free4ME mostr\u00f3 que existe una necesidad cr\u00edtica de productos de higiene menstrual gratuitos, y estamos entusiasmados de continuar expandiendo este programa a todas las instalaciones del condado\u201d, dijo Kelly Motadel, MD, MPH, oficial de salud infantil del condado. \u201cNadie que necesite estos productos deber\u00eda tener que prescindir de ellos o arriesgarse a una infecci\u00f3n porque los usa por m\u00e1s tiempo del recomendado\u201d.<\/p>\n

La incapacidad de una persona para acceder o pagar productos menstruales, lo que se conoce como pobreza menstrual, afecta de manera desproporcionada a las personas en edad escolar. Una\u00a0estudio reciente\u00a0<\/a>mostr\u00f3 que uno de cada cuatro estudiantes en los EE. UU. ha tenido problemas para pagar productos de \u00e9poca.<\/p>\n

La iniciativa Free4ME fue impulsada por l\u00edderes de la comunidad local, incluidos\u00a0Voluntad juvenil\u00a0<\/a>y Planificaci\u00f3n de la Familia. Ambas organizaciones brindaron aportes cr\u00edticos para el desarrollo y la implementaci\u00f3n del programa.<\/p>\n

El proveedor del condado de dispensadores de productos menstruales, Aunt Flow, es un l\u00edder en el movimiento de equidad menstrual. La empresa abastece sus dispensadores con productos de algod\u00f3n org\u00e1nico 100%, lo que contribuye al compromiso del condado con la sostenibilidad.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
