Diaper need is very real, and stressful.
"As Maria, a mom of four, told Dr. Randles: 'Diapers is the no. 1 concern for me right now because I don’t want to struggle more, so I have to think about this stuff in this way, and I can’t go over my daily limit. It’s hard living paycheck to paycheck, living diaper to diaper.”
You can make a difference by supporting BabyBasics.
‘Living Paycheck to Paycheck, Living Diaper to Diaper’
Diaper need causes more anxiety than food or housing insecurity for some mothers.

It’s an important read—and all too real.
Across Massachusetts, empty diaper shelves — and long lines to get them - The Boston Globe
Even for families who don’t typically struggle to make ends meet, finding diapers is proving to be exceptionally difficult in the age of coronavirus, partly because of widespread panic buying.

In an effort to continue to support our participating families, Baby Basics has made some temporary adjustments to our program in response to COVID-19. We have temporarily halted distributing diapers in person for the health and safety of all involved and have instead opted to provide financial support to enable them to purchase diapers for the next two months.
In this unusual time, and with one of our two distribution sites closed and the other focused on treating ill patients, we felt this was the best way to continue to support our participants in a fast, safe, reliable manner so they could get the diapers they need right into their hands. We look forward to returning to our usual distribution method, which allows us to connect with our families, as soon as it is possible.
Please be safe. Thank you for your support so that we can help these working families in need.
