🩸✨ GOT A UTERUS? WE GOT YOU, PERIODT!™️💅🏾

Because access to menstrual care, reproductive health education, and bodily autonomy should NEVER be a luxury!

At Ballet After Dark, we’re kicking period poverty to the curb, one pad, one period, and one powerful conversation at a time!

From our signature Code Red care kits and Periodt!™️ curriculum to our BAD Stitches workforce development program and Hot Sex Kits, we’re making menstrual equity more than a conversation — we’re making it a MOVEMENT!

No shame. No stigma. No gatekeeping. Just education, empowerment, and resources for the girls and women who need them most.

Your body. Your health. Your dignity. OUR PRIORITY.

And that’s on PERIODT!™️🩸💋

Ballet After Dark knows how to show up and show out 💁🏾‍♀️

Last week we exhibited a few of our signature programs and samples of our reusable pads at the Congressional Black Caucus Foundation Annual Legislative Conference. As a @meta Business Leaders Network Partner, we appreciate any opportunity to connect with folks (yes, including @mayorbmscott ) about our important cause.

We clean up nice ☕️

Ballet After Dark celebrated the end of summer with a tea party. We looked great, drank (and spilled) tea, handed out awards and got to enjoy each other’s company before heading into the Fall.

Thanks to everyone who made it such a special event! taken in Baltimore, Maryland by @balletafterdark
