Dear Lactnet Members,
I love hearing references about ILCA!  Many of you may also be aware 
that there is now an US ILCA Affilitate and you can link to the 
temporary website via the ILCA website. 
http://www.ilca.org/uslca/index.html
The  Mission of USLCA is to " To build and sustain a national 
association that advocates for lactation professionals".  This means 
that in the future we will be able to respond to issues in the US. There 
has been a lot lately!  The BOD is currently working to create a strong 
foundation so this organization will flourish. Glenda Dickerson, USLCA 
President will be presenting our beginning work at a plenary at ILCA. We 
will also have a booth, so please stop by to visit and share your 
thoughts and ideas! If you are not already a current ILCA member in the 
US, I invite you to join and participate to help make changes on a 
national level!
Karen Querna, RN, BSN, IBCLC

PS
I also found the article written by Carla Moquin very easily using  
www.ASK.com instead of Google.
