An Act relative to Department of Transitional Assistance benefits for diapers

This bill adds a $30 monthly diaper allowance to Massachusetts' Department of Transitional Assistance (DTA) benefits. It directly affects low-income DTA recipients with dependent children, providing $30 per child per month specifically for diaper purchases. The key provision amends two sections of the law: one for recipients (Section 117A) and one for parents (Section 118), ensuring both groups receive the same diaper benefit. This creates a concrete policy change by integrating diaper costs into existing cash assistance programs.
