Real Diaper Association (RDA)
RDA is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, a charity, dedicated to cloth diaper education. From their founding in 2004, they have had members ask for help educating daycare centers about the safety and ease of cloth diapers. Recently, they conducted a survey of 250 cloth diaper users about their experiences with cloth diapers in daycare. In 2009, RDA members and RDIA members have gathered to propose to the two boards of directors a joint 2009/2010 project on cloth diapers in daycare.
