CSUN is proud to provide FREE menstrual products in select restrooms across campus in recognition of CA Assembly Bill 367, the Menstrual Equity for All Act of 2021 and CSUN Associated Students Senate Bill 2021-22-002. Menstrual equity involves de-stigmatizing periods and addressing menstruating individuals' lack of access to proper hygiene products.
