“…support and expansion of breastfeeding programs not only save lives, but are the most cost efficient investment in human capital with the greatest return for world economic prosperity,”



-Arthur I. Eidelman, MD, Breastfeeding Medicine.



“ exclusive breastfeeding goes a long way toward canceling out the health difference between being born into poverty and being born into affluence. (….) It is almost as if breastfeeding takes the infant out of poverty for those first few months in order to give the child a fairer start in life and compensate for the injustice of the world into which it was born.”



–James P. Grant, former Executive Director, UNICEF

NACCHO Hosts Public Health Breastfeeding Webinar Series



The Public Health Breastfeeding Webinar Series, funded through a cooperative agreement with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, will promote promising practices and share lessons learned from the Reducing Breastfeeding Disparities through Peer and Professional Support Project (Breastfeeding Project). Between January 2015 and June 2016 the Breastfeeding Project awarded $2.9M to support 72 community implementations of evidence-based and innovative breastfeeding support projects across the US. This represents the largest nationally coordinated implementation of community-level breastfeeding support initiatives.  With a focus on identifying public health solutions and promoting equity in breastfeeding for underserved communities, themes covered throughout the series will include:



  *   creating continuity of care in the community,

  *   engaging and retaining hard to reach groups,

  *   ensuring sustainability through billing, and

  *   building sustainability through policy, systems and environmental changes.

CDC continuing education for the series (modules 2-6) is pending.
