Periods 101- Youth Workshop

Presented by The Chattery:

The Chattery is partnering with Chattanooga Girls Rock to offer workshops for youth and adults. For information about the entire program, click here. All classes are powered through funding from the UNFoundation.

Periods 101 is designed to give you the background knowledge on what happens before, during, and after menstruation. We will discuss the basics, including what period products are currently available, as well as how to manage the symptoms that sometimes arrive during menstruation. You will be provided with a detailed resource list at the end to learn more. This class is a valuable opportunity for all to learn more about this part of puberty, regardless of if you menstruate or not.

This class is limited to girls and gender expansive youth ages 12-17. Pizza and refreshments provided.

Please note: Masks are optional.
