Free tampons are coming to New York's schools and prisons

New York City will be the first city in the US to introduce a programme of free sanitary protection for the women who need it in their schools, prisons and shelters. One supporter of the plan is Jennifer Weiss-Wolf, from the NYU School of Law, who's also been involved in the campaign.
