Bill overview
The Period PROUD Act of 2023 aims to increase access to menstrual products for low-income individuals by providing additional funding to the Social Services Block Grant program. Specifically, it allocates $1.9 billion over five years (2025-2028) to states and eligible organizations, with a portion reserved for technical assistance and program evaluation. The bill also prohibits sequestration of these funds and outlines how states can use the money to distribute products and support related programs.
