LOS ANGELES—The University of California–Los Angeles (UCLA) will become the first school in the University of California system to provide free menstrual products in men’s, women’s, and gender-neutral restrooms beginning April 4, according to school officials.
The school’s facility management will supply complimentary pads and tampons in restrooms located in facilities across campus, as “affirming that access to these items is a matter of personal dignity and equity,” according to a community letter sent to all UCLA students via email last week.
