Hi Peggy,
I have two go-to sources for these mothers. I will refer them to www.lowmilksupply.org, originated by our colleague Diana West. I also will suggest her other website, www.bfar.org, because the information for mothers approaching breastfeeding after a breast reduction can also be helpful for a mother struggling with supply. Diana's book Defining Your Own Success is related to that site. Her other book, co-authored with Lisa Marasco, The Breastfeeding Mother's Guide to Making More Milk, is directly aimed toward the mothers with supply issues for any reason. To Diana and Lisa, please let us know when ever you release updated versions of either book!!

Subject: Resources for moms with low supply
Hi, everyone:
Does anyone know of any type of resources (website, book, online support group) for women who are supplementing with pumped breast milk (baby does not latch and is getting primarily formula) because they have been unable to build a full supply but remain committed to providing what they can?
It's that in-between zone that seems to be void of support. I have a mom who would benefit from a community to help her manage her challenges with this. Any suggestions would be helpful!
Peggy
