Church’s adult diaper program in jeopardy

McHENRY – Only four diaper banks in the nation hand out diapers to adults with incontinence problems and one is in McHenry: St. Paul Episcopal Church.

The St. Paul Diaper Bank Partnership has donated 22,700 adults diapers to its partners in the first half of this year, a significant increase over the 17,900 adult diapers given out in all of last year.

Overall, the number of diapers dispensed also is on the rise, – 140,000 children and adult diapers so far compared with a total of 96,000 last year.
