If none of these diaper programs will work for your child, you may apply for assistance with diapers and wipes. In your application, you must be able to show why these programs will not work for you. Applying does not guarantee approval.

To apply for diapers and wipes:

  • Your child must be 2 years old or younger
  • Your child must live in Tarrant County
  • You must not qualify for any local diaper programs

If your application is approved, Gill Children’s Services may provide diapers and wipes for your child every three months for one year or until your child turns three, whichever is sooner.

 

Why this change?

Our mission is to help with last resort needs. Last resort means that  no other programs can help your child. To help with diapers, you must confirm that no other local programs will work for your family.

What if Gill can no longer help my child with diapers and wipes?

Please see the above list of programs that may be able to provide diapers and wipes for your family.

What if my child has a medical condition that requires them to use diapers?

Gill may consider continuing assistance after the child turns three if a letter from their pediatrician is provided.

My child was approved for diapers and wipes. Now what happens?

Gill will only provide diapers and wipes for one year after the date of approval or until your child turns three, whichever is sooner. When you are approved, you can come to the office and get your child's diapers and wipes every three months, up to five times. When you pick up, you will get a card that says the next date you can come to pick up. Only a parent or guardian may pick up diapers for the child.

What if I miss my pickup date?

If you do not pick up the diapers and wipes within five business days of your pickup date listed on your card, you cannot get those diapers. You can return on your next pickup date. If you lose your card, you can call the office at 817-332-5070 to see what the date is.

 

Gill is not responsible for the expense of any particular service or item unless we have specifically pre-approved payment for that service or item, for a specific date, after agreement with the provider/vendor to a specific discounted amount.
