Lady winning your statehouse sports pool and then plugging her legislative cause is pretty #vtpoli. #diaperneed @vtjlcv https://t.co/R7f5j1dKJC

By the end of this year, without intervention by the Legislature, the JLCV Diaper Bank will be forced to discontinue service beyond the Champlain Valley region, leaving families served by over 60 local agencies without diapers. Support S.198 today. #vtpoli #VTdiaperneed

What is a diaper bank?

A diaper bank is an organization that collects diapers and distributes them to families who need them. Diaper banks around the United States all work a bit differently to serve their area the best but together we are all working to #EndDiaperNeed.

"Being able to provide [families with young children] with free diapers allows them to buy more food for their families." Struggling to meet basic needs should not be a reality for Vermonters. Support S.198 today. #VTdiaperneed #vtpoli

Great news from our partners Vermont Afterschool! This new grant program will begin supporting afterschool and summer programs as soon as this summer. These programs play an important role in supporting families and meeting well-being, connectedness, and mental health needs.

A great discussion last night with @jgoldblum and @colleenfree about their new book #BrokeinAmerica. Until we solve poverty in the U.S., #diaperneed will continue. #vtpoli #VTdiaperneed

Affirming testimony this morning on diaper need in Vermont. We believe that a Vermont Diaper Need Working Group can make #diaperneed a think of the past for so many Vermont families. #vtpoli #diaperneedVT

[Junior League of Champlain Valley @vtjlcv]

Solving diaper need in Vermont starts with collaboration. We are pleased to provide testimony before the Legislature this morning regarding S.198 creating a Vermont Diaper Need Working Group #vtpoli #diaperneedVT

[VT Commission on Women @VTWomen]

100% volunteer-operated, the @vtjlcv Diaper Bank has distributed 1.4 million diapers in 3 years. S.198 would establish a #Vt Diaper Need Working Group. #diaperneedVT #vtpoli

[Junior League of Champlain Valley @vtjlcv]

Diaper need affects 1 in 3 families: “We have families that constantly come weekly and have made it clear that without our help they would be stuck.” Let’s end diaper need. #diaperneedVT #vtpoli

[Junior League of Champlain Valley @vtjlcv]

Friendly reminder that there is no government safety net for diapers. S.198 will help fix that. #diaperneedVT #vtpoli

[Junior League of Champlain Valley @vtjlcv]

Every family deserves dignity but there is NO government safety net for #diapers. The Vermont Diaper Need Working Group bill could change that. #vtpoli #diaperneedVT https://t.co/lH6VwaGZ0K

Solving diaper need in Vermont starts with collaboration. We were pleased to see S.198 creating a Vermont Diaper Need Working Group taken up by the Legislature today. #vtpoli #diaperneedVT

[Junior League of Champlain Valley @vtjlcv]

Our Diaper Bank is 100% volunteer-operated and has distributed 1.4 million diapers in 3 years. We need a Vermont Diaper Need Working Group to design a solution to diaper need in Vermont. #vtpoli #diaperneedVT https://t.co/bcHdi9UIEr

[Junior League of Champlain Valley @vtjlcv]

No Vermont family should go without clean diapers for their babies and toddlers. That’s why we support a bill to create a Vermont Diaper Need Working Group to design a solution. #vtpoli #diaperneedVT

[Junior League of Champlain Valley @vtjlcv]

Yesterday we celebrated with @PeterWelch, Rep. Ann Pugh, Rep. Jessica Brumsted, Rep. Maida Townsend, @BTVAirport, DeePT, @FeedChittenden & others. 🎈 Today let's continue the conversation about how to fix #diaperneed in Vermont so no baby, toddler, or family suffers. #vtpoli

#Vt diaper drive hits million markhttps://www.wcax.com/2021/06/01/vt-diaper-drive-hits-million-mark/

[Junior League of Champlain Valley @vtjlcv]

One million diapers by an organization that's 100% volunteer couldn't have happened without terrific community support. It takes a village to raise a child and we are so proud of the Vermont village for showing up for these babies and toddlers. #enddiaperneed

[Junior League of Champlain Valley @vtjlcv]

In 3 years JLCV's Diaper Bank has distributed one million diapers. #Diaperneed in Vermont is profound. We are grateful to Vermont's legislature for directing
COVID relief funding to this critical need and to our congressional delegation for supporting that funding. Thank you!

“The volunteers are doing a fantastic job,” a mother of six said of the hard work of a #VT nonprofit—which just crossed a major milestone in its work to support its neighbors in need: https://t.co/yYZZuZcuXd

[Champlain Valley Head Start @cvheadstart]

Approx 4,000 diapers donated by @vtjlcv! Thank you @SeventhGen.
