I think your hours as a paid peer counselor qualify. I don't think it has
to be supervised by an IBCLC. (Although I think that would be really
helpful, to have it supervised by an IBCLC.) This link does not say it has
to be supervised by an IBCLC from what I am reading. You might email them
also and ask, to be sure.

Good luck!
