Addressing the Diaper Gap
Nearly 1 in 3 American families struggle to afford enough diapers for their children, which can lead to serious health problems for both babies and parents. To address this issue, the White House has called on private and nonprofit leaders to explore creative ways to make it easier and more affordable for nonprofits to provide diapers to the households that they serve. In response, several corporations, including Jet, First Quality, Huggies, and The Honest Company, have stepped up to the challenge.
How you can get involved:
- Spread the word using #DiaperGap on your social media channels.
- Sign up to become a diaper distributor.
