Establishes a special commission to study the feasibility of a diaper allowance for Massachusetts families.

The bill creates a special commission to investigate the feasibility and costs of providing an annual diaper allowance to families in Massachusetts. The commission will study the number of children under two years old in households receiving Transitional Aid to Families with Dependent Children (TAFDC), the average diaper usage, the cost burden on families, and the amount of diapers needed per child. The commission will also assess the current clothing allowance delivery method as a model for a diaper allowance and make recommendations to the General Court.
