  Jay, in a comment regarding education said
"You know what would be really nice?  For every community to have a list that
is sent around to ALL HCPs that lists all the people/agencies within the
community who offer BF help/services."

Here in NJ we have regional breastfeeding consortia, composed of hospital
representatives, LC's and anyone else who is interested in supporting
breastfeeding. Our consortium (and most of the others, I believe) publish a
brochure containing just that type of info, listing all of the hospitals in
the region, with their bf services and phone numbers. It also includes pump
rentals stations in the area, LC's who wish to be contacted for help, LLL
numbers, etc. It is a great resource and they make it available (and
distribute it ) free to all. We reprint it and give it to all of our bf
clients in the hospital as well as in our classes. It would be great if every
area had one.
I can send a copy to anyone who sends me a SASE. Contact me via e-mail if
interested.
