DescriptionThis paper focuses on how the lack of educational resources for adolescent females with special needs and the misinformed perceptions of their menstrual health requiring a special program. Females with cognitive disabilities or impairments were unable to properly care for themselves while menstruating. The paper supports the interventions to educate girls about managing their menstrual hygiene. Health programs revolving around menstrual hygiene are becoming a global necessity as some parts of the world lack clean water and other resources needed to preserve menstrual health. Adolescent females with developmental disabilities are urgently in need of such programs. This intervention is of integral importance as females with various disabilities need to know about how best to navigate the uncertainties of adolescence and early adulthood. It is designed to promote better menstrual health as a vehicle for helping females experience a smooth transition into adulthood.
