Diaper Bank
- Every new year, a new “Welcome Form” and “concrete goods survey” must be filled out, which takes 5-10 minutes to complete. It must be filled out for you to receive diapers and be enrolled in the diaper program.
- New families can enroll on a space available basis.
- You may only receive diapers/pull-ups from one FamilyWorks location (Wallingford Food Bank, Family Resource Center, Nathan Hale Satellite Resource Center, or Home Delivery program)
- From the 8th month of pregnancy until the child’s 4th birthday, you may receive diapers/pull-ups. After their 4th birthday, children are no longer eligible for the diaper program.
- For resources on other diaper banks, please talk to our Community Connectors
