Dr Frank, who plays an integral role in ensuring the rehabilitation unit runs smoothly. He works closely with the multidisciplinary team, supporting patients and their families throughout the rehabilitation journey while helping create a welcoming, compassionate and positive environment.

When we talk about rehabilitation, it's important to understand that not all rehabilitation is the same. While the public may use the term "rehabilitation unit" broadly, there are important differences between acute rehabilitation, sub-acute rehabilitation and step-down care, including the treatment approaches, intensity of care and expected outcomes.

Breaking the Cycle of Period Poverty: Restoring Dignity,
Keeping Girls in School and Empowering the Next Generation

Period poverty affects thousands of girls across South Africa,
preventing many from attending school simply because they
cannot afford menstrual hygiene products. Beyond the
financial burden, it also impacts confidence, mental well-
being, academic performance and future opportunities.

Founded by Lindsay Adams, #AgainstPeriodPoverty is
working to change that reality by providing sanitary
products, menstrual health education, youth leadership
programmes and innovative initiatives such as sanitary pad
vending machines. Since its establishment, the organisation
has supported more than 160 schools across the Western
Cape, ensuring that girls can continue their education with
dignity and confidence.

More Info:
Lindsay Adams is the Founder and CEO of
#AgainstPeriodPoverty, a movement dedicated to restoring

dignity and creating equal opportunities for girls through
menstrual health advocacy and access to sanitary products.
Her passion was sparked after witnessing two girls
repeatedly miss school because they could not afford
sanitary pads. What began as one act of compassion has
grown into a nationally recognized organization that
continues to transform the lives of thousands of young
women.
Today, #AgainstPeriodPoverty partners with schools,
businesses, government departments and community
organization's to provide menstrual hygiene products,
menstrual health education, leadership development
through the APP Ambassadors Programme and sustainable
solutions that address period poverty.

Vision
To create a South Africa where every girl has access to
menstrual hygiene products, clean running water, safe
sanitation facilities and menstrual health education, allowing
her to pursue her education, realize her full potential and live
with dignity, confidence and hope.


Mission
To eliminate period poverty by providing menstrual hygiene
products, promoting menstrual health education, advocating
for access to clean water and safe sanitation, developing
future leaders through the APP Ambassadors Programme
and building sustainable partnerships that empower girls and
strengthen communities.
