Judy asked where she might find a timeline of the National Breastfeeding  
Awareness Campaign. NABA published this in the Winter/Spring 2004 issue of  its 
newsletter Abreast of Our Times. Also included was an insert with the  original 
statements of relative risks, the citations used in the literature  review 
that generated the statements, and a copy of one of the ads that was  pulled. If 
you need more information please feel free to contact me. I hope  people are 
aware of the 6 free breastfeeding booklets available from the Office  on 
Women's Health:
 
An Easy Guide to Breastfeeding
An Easy Guide to Breastfeeding for Spanish Women (in Spanish)
An Easy Guide to Breastfeeding for American Indian and Alaska Native  Families
An Easy Guide to Breastfeeding for African American Women
An Easy Guide to Breastfeeding for Chinese Women (in Chinese)
 
These can be ordered from The National Women's Health Information Center at  
800.994.9662. Sets of all five posters from the campaign can also be  ordered 
in large quantities and shipped to conferences or for distribution in  your 
community. While the modified campaign is not exactly what many of us had  in 
mind, people are using the materials as a mechanism to kick off or augment  what 
they are doing in their community.
