Overview
About Safe N' Happy Periods
http://safenhappyperiods.org/Safe N' Happy Periods is a humble step towards shy-free, pain-free, healthy, happy, & sustainable menstruation time. The current environment presents a host of menstrual challenges to young girls and we believe that spreading awareness through lectures, open discussions, and workshops will help create a healthier lifestyle for the girls and the society as a whole. We create awareness on different aspects of menstruation for adolescent girls and women through talks and workshops designed and delivered to them. We touch the different elements of the menstrual ecosystem (i.e. schools, teachers, civic authorities, rag pickers, etc). Using the strength of interactive and persuasive communication, Safe N' Happy Periods is working towards changing deep-rooted beliefs and attitudes of shame, shyness, and discrimination towards menstruation. And also facilitate behavior change in girls, their immediate families, and society at large.
