DID YOU KNOW?

1 in 2 US families and 1 in 3 Louisiana families with young children struggle to afford diapers.
Medicaid covers 1/3 of all births in the US but government programs don’t provide diapers – a basic need for babies and toddlers.
Diaper needs impact the physical and mental well-being of children.
Just a few health issues that come from poor diapering: Painful diaper rashes, diarrhea, urinary tract infections, Hepatitis A, and viral meningitis
Most childcare centers require parents to provide a day’s supply of diapers – without this, babies can’t go to daycare, and their parents can’t go to work.
A child who is sick due to poor diapering or one who is not allowed to attend daycare because their parent can’t afford diapers is deprived of a learning environment which leads to long-term impacts.
