On Wed, 8 Aug 2007 Emily Lindsey asked how the coaches on her county's great program, Boot Camp for Dads, can be taught about breastfeeding.
Emily, why not use at least part of a peer counsellor course? Is there peer counsellor training available in your area? If not, LLL has a training package and you might like to inquire about that.
If Jean Ridler is on Lactnet at the moment - Jean, perhaps you'd like to share some comments about the South African experience with male peer counsellors? I was most impressed at what I saw there.
