The Milwaukee Diaper Mission participates in the We Can Do This campaign, an initiative of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services to increase confidence in and uptake of COVID vaccines and reinforce basic prevention measures. National Diaper Bank Network members like the Milwaukee Diaper Mission joined the Campaign after the vaccines were recommended for children as young as 6 months.
