For many families, the struggle to afford enough diapers is a daily reality. Diaper need—the lack of a sufficient supply of clean diapers—impacts nearly 1 in 2 U.S. families, leading to serious hygiene, health, and financial challenges. Without enough diapers, parents are forced to make difficult choices, sometimes leaving diapers on too long, reusing disposable diapers, or even resorting to unsafe alternatives like plastic bags or towels.
