We're giving 400 diapers to new California families when they leave the hospital. And we're rolling out the program to those who need them the most first.  As if the stresses of having a child weren't enough -- the cost of diapers has gone up 45% since the pandemic. Families skip meals to pay for diapers.  We have rebuilt how government can support families and kids through increased paid leave, universal pre-k, child care, free school meals, student savings accounts and, now, by providing families with an essential first need.

Analysis Summary
California is launching the Golden State Start program providing 400 free diapers to all newborn families at hospital discharge, beginning this summer in partnership with nonprofit Baby2Baby. The program addresses rising diaper costs which the governor claims have increased 45% since the pandemic—a figure not independently confirmed in available reporting. The initiative is real and well-sourced across multiple outlets, though the specific economic statistics cited lack independent verification.
