About Parts of Peace
What is Hygiene Access?
Hygiene access is the solution to hygiene poverty.
Hygiene poverty occurs when individuals and households are unable to afford critically needed hygiene items for themselves or their families when they need them.
Often called a "hidden crisis". hygiene poverty often denies people of their integrity and dignity and creates barriers to general well-being, social interactions and opportunity and can lead to a number of other social, emotional and health related challenges.
Hygiene access programs ensure that clients can get the hygiene items they need at a cost that is affordable and in a way that is accessible.
