She thinks it's demeaning and discriminatory.

Explanation:

The Help is a debut novel of Kathryn Stockett that narrates the story of Miss Eugenia also known as Skeeter Phelan. She is a white young woman of 22-years old. The book narrates the story of the black maid's lives in Jackson Mississippi. Skeeter aspires to be a writer but gets employed in Jackson Journal where she was required to write about housekeeping. Skeeter rarely knows about housekeeping so she takes help from her friend's maid, Aibileen.

The Home Help Sanitation Initiative was a bill that was passed as a disease-preventive bill. According to this bill, African American maids were required to use separate bathrooms so that they may not spread their diseases to the whites. When Skeeter cam to know about this she thought this initiative to be demeaning and discriminatory.
