The North East Community Action Corporation (NECAC) is offering free diapers to income-qualifying parents of babies in 12 Missouri counties.
The diapers are available at NECAC Service Centers in Lewis, Lincoln, Macon, Marion, Monroe, Montgomery, Pike, Ralls, Randolph. St. Charles, Shelby and Warren counties. NECAC has more than 43,000 diapers and pull-ups available for ages up to four years old.
In addition to qualifying by income, clients must make an appointment for a NECAC intake assessment, take a life skills class and meet other guidelines.
“With baby formula still hard to find in some areas, and inflation continuing to take a bite out of people’s pocketbooks, we hope this diaper program will help lower-income parents be able to use the savings for other needs,” said NECAC County Services Programs Director Linda Fritz. “It’s one less worry. We urge parents with infants to give us a call and make an appointment.”
The program follows the distribution of free meat by NECAC in eight counties that have cold storage capability. Funding for both comes from the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security (CARES) Act.
More information is available by calling 573-324-6633.
