The NEST Act amends the Social Security Act to include newborn supply kits as a special project.

The NEST Act amends title V of the Social Security Act to include the purchase, acquisition, and distribution of newborn supply kits as a special project of regional and national significance. The kits include essential goods for mothers and newborns, such as diapers, wipes, blankets, and educational materials.
