She co-founded The Pad Project, a global non-profit organization devoted to the belief that "a period should end a sentence, not a girl's education," alongside her students. With an introduction by Melissa, the recently published book Period. End of Sentence.: A New Chapter in the Fight for period Justice describes common period issues and the remedies being promoted by a new wave of body positive activists.
