I pass this on to you all, since lactation consultants certainly are  
caregivers doing carework. Perhaps someone will submit something.  
This journal takes scholarly research articles, but also essay,  
reflections, poetry. It's a journal with a broad view of how one  
might approach whatever the theme of the issue is.
