I believe Betsy was referring to Dr. Margaret McLaren, who also  gave a talk 
on Breastfeeding and Maternal Methadone or Substance Abuse:  Promoting health 
and Recovery for ACTLC, Connecticut's local ILCA  affiliate.  Dr. McLaren is 
Director of Well Newborn Services & PROkids  Intervention Program at 
Connecticut Children’s Medical Center, Hartford,  Connecticut. She just was named a 
Harris Mid-Career Fellow by Leaders for the  21st Century, a Program for fellows 
at Zero to Three.  In response to the  need for services for newborns affected 
by maternal substance use and their  caregivers, she founded PROkids 
(Promoting  Resilience and Optimal development) within the  Primary Care Center in 
1991. This intervention combines a medical home with  family development and home 
visitation. Margaret’s major interests are  enhancement of infant mental 
health and attachment in high-risk mother-infant  dyads. As part of this 
intervention, Dr. McLaren promotes breastfeeding and  skin to skin contact when 
possible. For more information, please check:
