May 2022 Infant Formula Shortage Resources click below to go to resources lists:

Community-Led Baby Formula Exchange Website Available 
In response to a nationwide shortage of baby formula, two free online tools have been created by communities to facilitate the voluntary exchange of baby formula between families who have extra and those in need.
  • The Free Formula Exchange: Families must register for an account and provide the type of formula they need, any dietary considerations for their baby, and whether they are willing to receive opened formula. Families can also rate the urgency of their formula needs. Once registered, they will gain access to a list of individuals with formula whom they can text or email directly to set up the exchange.
