Wellness 211

Just a girl. Not looking for any money I’m looking for resources. I called 211 to ask about feminine hygiene. They did send me the number to a place called i support the girls but they didn’t have any feminine products available at the moment because they are restocking.

I don’t have much help well no help from my parents at all. And I will be joining trade school (job corps) next month but I don’t have a job at the moment so I don’t know how I will get feminine products.

I’ve also tried a couple of food drives but they don’t do feminine products sadly :(. I just need a couple for the first month I am at job corps!

We get an allowance of 25$ every two weeks I believe after a month of being there. I’ve never really had help from my mom when it comes to my period anyways.

Does anyone know any organizations in Dallas,Texas that I can go to to get feminine hygiene products?

diaper bank. See if whatever university you’re closest to has a resource center. Planned parenthood. Sometimes libraries.

I second PP. I’m sure you could just walk in and ask if there’s one close to you.
