FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

No. Because we have a limited supply of these items, we allow students to take only one of each item per visit. Our free condoms and menstrual products, however, are packaged with multiple per bag (and more can be made available upon request for a UF-affiliated organization). Students are welcome to come back for more items in the future and to tell other students to visit our offices for these items.
