The Military Family Diaper Partnership Act directs the Department of Defense to provide $1 million annually from 2027 through 2030 to the National Diaper Bank Network to establish a fund that distributes diapers and diapering supplies to military families in need. The program will benefit military families struggling with the cost of basic childcare supplies, working through local diaper banks already operating near military installations. The legislation requires the National Diaper Bank Network to match the federal funding with equal contributions from private sources and only work with established partner organizations that have been serving areas within 20 miles of military bases for at least five years. The funds can be used both to provide actual diapers and supplies to eligible military families and to cover administrative costs for technical assistance and program evaluation. The National Diaper Bank Network must submit annual reports to the Defense Secretary documenting how the money was spent and the impact of the program.
