Subject: Infant feeding in emergencies


Karleen,

the Safe Motherhood initiative/ White Ribbon Alliance has formed a Women
Infant Service Package document which outlines preparedness and disaster
strategies including safe and appropriate infant feeding ( breastfeeding).
http://www.whiteribbonalliance.org/Resources/Documents/WISP%20Final%20Version4.pdf
Betsy McCallon at WRA leads the working group on WISP.

ACNM is also part of the document, and I imagine that they too would might
be interested,  Robbie Prepas or Lisa Summers would be the 2 to consult on
that at ACNM www.acnm.org  or email me directly and I can give you their
contact info.

Also the American Public Health Association would be a good ally as well , I
am a member of the MCH section and would be happy to find the right person
to forward it to.
