The Future Educators Club is Collecting Materials for the DCC Wellness Center


The Future Educators Club is collecting materials for the Damon City Campus (DCC) Wellness Center.

Did you know that we have a Wellness Center at the DCC?

Did you know that we have a Lactation Room for nursing moms?
 
Did you know that feminine care products are not covered by WIC or food stamps?

We are collecting feminine care products throughout the month of January. Supplies requested are tampons, pads, panty liners, breast pads, hand sanitizer, and baby wipes.

Collection boxes are available by the DCC security desks on 4th and 5th floor.

The Future Educators Club, in connection to this collection, is hosting guest speaker Ann Germanow from Scensibles. (
https://www.scensiblesource.com/).

·       The company advocates for a greater public understanding of the environmental and health risks associated with improper disposal of feminine care products.
·       Social Responsibility: The Company is committed to helping economically disadvantaged teens and women have ready access to feminine care products and SCENSIBLES in a dignified manner.
·       As future educators, we will discuss our role in educating our future students about personal hygiene while advocating for the growth of our DCC Wellness Center

If you are interested in joining the conversation, please come to DCC #5140 on January 26th from 12-12:30 p.m. Our regular FEA meeting will continue from 12:30 – 1 p.m.

Any questions, please contact Alyssa Likely, FEA member and project leader (alikly@student.monroecc.edu) or Aimee Shaver, FEA advisor (Ashaver1@monroecc.edu).
