AN ACT CONCERNING THE AVAILABILITY OF MENSTRUAL PRODUCTS IN SCHOOLS.

HB 5664 modifies school menstrual product availability requirements by removing the mandate for products in men's restrooms at high schools and eliminating the requirement for all student-accessible restrooms in grades 3-8. Instead, it requires schools to provide menstrual products at a single centralized location, such as the nurse's office. This change directly affects all public schools in Connecticut, shifting from widespread restroom access to a designated point of distribution. The bill focuses on streamlining access while maintaining availability for students who need it.
