PPGTU Installs Emergency Contraception Vending Machines for Students

For the first time, a vending machine with emergency contraception pills is available to Temple students.The Planned Parenthood Generation Action at Temple has installed this machine in the Essential Needs Hub.

President of PPGTU, Rika Poscover, says she hopes this initiative will make a difference on campus.”I hope that number one it decreases the stigma around needing EC and number two that it saves some lives because I know that there are so many people out there, men and women, who, you know, things happen.”

All university ID holders are granted 35 cents per month to use the machine.
