Lactation Support Funding
Breastfeeding takes support. We understand that birthing folks in the Black community may be met with lack of familia support. We want to offer an opportunity to obtain professional lactation support of your choosing without the worry about the financial obligation.

Prenatal Breastfeeding Classes
Access to prenatal breastfeeding support is critical to success after birth. We offer opportunities throughout the year for Black families to receive free prenatal breastfeeding education. This class is not only open to couples, but to the families support people as well.

Scholarships & Grants for Lactation
Only 2-10% of IBCLC's in the United States are Black. We want to not only change the lactation field to be more diverse, but we want to help Black women & birthing people to create a career for themselves. We see the value in different credentials and do not want to limit people in the type of work they want to pursue. As funding becomes available we will post scholarship and grant opportunities.
