National Diaper Need Awareness Week is 2 weeks away! The week draws attention to the issue of diaper need in the United States. A signature initiative of the National Diaper Bank Network, the National Diaper Need Awareness Week provides individuals, organizations, communities, and elected officials the opportunity to engage in real talk and simple actions. By working together we can ensure that all babies have access to clean diapers and other basic necessities required for them to thrive and reach their full potential. Did you know that 1 in 2 U.S. families struggles to provide enough diapers to keep their child clean, dry, and healthy? Help us change that. Keeping Families Covered invites you to get involved. Be a part of the growing movement of diaper bank leaders, advocates, and individuals across the country. Learn more about our work to #EndDiaperNeed and how you can support it at https://lnkd.in/g4D7zCa.
