The following comment by Jennifer in a recent post caught my eye:
Mary Kay Smith who worked on this with me some and I pondered how to
get the
word out to grandmas and great-grandmas.  We thought maybe a
campaign in the
beauty parlors?

The American Cancer Society has a program aimed at getting
hairdressers to talk with women about doing breast self-exams and
getting mammograms.  It was felt that first of all, the woman is
somewhat of a "captive audience" and secondly, it was a
non-threatening atmosphere in which to accomplish a small bit of
helath education.  I think using a similar approach to encouraging
breastfeeding is a great idea!
