Badger Period Project
The Badger Period Project was created to provide people on campus with menstrual cycles easier access to basic health necessities. These products are available for anyone who needs them because this is not just a “women’s” issue; it is a human issue. Our goal is to create a healthier and more inclusive campus.

Background
The Badger Period Project was started by a group of Bradley Hall residents in the Fall 2021 semester as part of their Bradley Learning Community seminar. By partnering with University Housing Facilities, these students worked to have 17 additional product dispensers installed in publicly accessible bathrooms in residence halls and dining halls. Their goal is to make free menstrual hygiene products available in bathrooms across campus.

This started as a project for a Bradley Learning Community seminar group. Those involved found it inconvenient not have menstrual products when they needed one, so they decided to change it. For more details, read the history and mission statement above!
