Putting diapers in the hands of those who need them.

Get Help

Your child is eligible if these all apply:

R

You are a resident and reside in Wake County

R

You have a current referral from a Diaper Train partner agency

R

The child is under 3 years old or is experiencing a medical need to continue diapers

How it works:

Once your referral is on file, you will receive a text to the phone number provided to alert you that you are eligible to begin to visit. Diaper Train provides a supply of diapers and training pants every four weeks.

Each time you receive diapers, you will be given a reminder slip with the date you are next eligible to return. This is a reminder, not an appointment. You may visit later than four (4) weeks but not earlier.

If you have another baby during the three years please bring documentation in order for Diaper Train to update your referral that includes the new baby’s birthdate (hospital discharge paper, birth certificate, Medicaid card, etc).

Families are not eligible to come directly to Diaper Train for diapers and receive a distribution from a partner agency at the same time.

Families may not utilize both direct service and community partner distribution at the same time.

You are not eligible to receive diapers if you receive diapers directly from a Community Partner Agency.
