Bottoms Up Program 🩲
Bottoms Up is CCC’s dedicated program to collect and distribute diapers, period products, and incontinence supplies for neighbors in need. Did you know:
- Infants require up to 12 diapers per day, and toddlers about 8. No state or federal child safety-net program allocates dollars specifically for the purchase of diapers. (Source: National Diaper Bank Network)
- Did you know that nearly 1 in 5 American girls have either left school early or missed school entirely because they didn’t have access to period products? (Source: Always. 2017. The Always Confidence and Puberty Wave VI Study.)
- Inadequate or inferior incontinence products can lead to urinary tract infections, rashes, and other complications that can trigger more serious problems. (Source: Lindenfeld Hall, Sarah.

The Community Crisis Center needs these items for the families we serve! Please drop off unopened and/or unused packages of diapers and pull-ups, pads, tampons, and liners, & incontinence products to our building.
