The Martin County Health Department has purchased diapers and wipes and has collected donations from many generous community members. If your child is in need of diapers or wipes, you can stop by our office to pick up 1 pack of diapers and wipes per child per month while supplies last. Office hours are Monday through Thursday from 8:00am to noon and 12:30pm to 4:30pm. We will accept donations of diapers throughout the year as this continues to be a hardship for many families. Thank you to everyone who has donated!
