The Navy unveils pilot program for free maternity uniforms for expecting service members
CBSN
The Navy is starting a new pilot program to issue maternity uniforms to pregnant service members for free.
The program will start on January 2, 2022 and last until 2026. The Navy will select 400 volunteers – including enlisted, officers, active and reserve component sailors – from around the world, who will be issued a full array of authorized Navy maternity uniforms, according to a memo.
After 12 months, if the maternity uniforms prove to be a success, more volunteers will be selected to test the clothing and give periodic feedback. Volunteers need to be pregnant before qualifying for the maternity pilot program.
