Dumfries now has a place for caregivers to change adult diapers at its town hall.
From Dumfries Councilwoman Cydny Neville: When you visit the John Wilmer Porter Building on Main Street in Dumfries, you’ll notice a change on the first floor. One of the restrooms has been upgraded to an all gender, handicap restroom, with an adult changing station!
