Free diapers, baby gear available in Trinidad this week
Trinidad families could pick up free diapers, clothing and baby gear at the Expo Center, where HuLA held a 11 a.m.-2 p.m. Diapers & More distribution Thursday.
Free diapers, clothing and baby gear were available at the Las Animas County Expo Center in Trinidad as HuLA Early Childhood Council held a Diapers & More distribution from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. Thursday, July 9. The stop gave parents and caregivers a no-cost place to pick up basics at 2000 N. Linden Ave., a familiar fairgrounds site used for other community events and distributions.
HuLA scheduled a second free distribution for Friday, July 10, from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the Huerfano County Community Center, 928 Russell Ave., in Walsenburg. For families trying to stretch a weekly budget, the Trinidad stop offered the most direct local access, especially for households that cannot easily make a separate trip for infant supplies.
HuLA stands for the Huerfano-Las Animas Counties Early Childhood Advisory Council. The Huerfano-Las Animas Counties District Health Department says the council works through partnerships that promote healthy kids, families and self-sufficiency, and the group is part of the Early Childhood Council Leadership Alliance, a statewide network of 34 early childhood councils. HuLA lists its Trinidad office at 412 Benedicta Avenue in Trinidad, and the local contact number is 719-845-0463.
The Diapers & More giveaway is not a one-time effort. Similar HuLA listings appeared in March 2026 and March 2025, showing the distribution has become a recurring support point for families in the two-county region. Earlier notices also said some Diapers & More events included gently used clothes from newborn sizes on up and new books, adding to the value for households with infants and toddlers.
That local reach matters in Las Animas County, which the U.S. Census Bureau says covers 4,772.9 square miles and is Colorado’s largest county by total area. A central pickup in Trinidad can save miles of travel for families living outside town, and HuLA’s service network already spans Trinidad and Walsenburg through bi-county early childhood providers such as RMSER Head Start Trinidad and SCCOG Early Learning Center.
