Makes FY 2025 supplemental appropriation of $587,450 to DCF for HomeFront NJ - Diaper Access Expansion Pilot Program.
This bill allocates $597,450 in supplemental funding for the Department of Children and Families (DCF) to expand HomeFront NJ's existing diaper program. The funds will support a pilot program providing diapers to low-income families across New Jersey, directly addressing the 47% of parents who reported diaper need in 2023 (per the National Diaper Bank Network). The grant will allow HomeFront NJ to expand its current service area beyond Central New Jersey, with potential for statewide implementation. This is a concrete funding mechanism to increase access to essential hygiene products for vulnerable families.
