Human milk feeding

Supporting Human Milk Feeding in the Community: Education, Resources, and Strategies

Families often leave labor, delivery, and postpartum units with the intention to feed human milk—but sustaining that goal requires more than just a good start. It requires connection to trusted support systems, clear guidance, and culturally responsive resources that meet people where they are. That’s where community organizations and public health initiatives play a crucial role.  

The panelists will highlight strategies, programs, and partnerships making a difference in human milk feeding outcomes beyond the hospital setting.
