I am a member of the Westchester/Putnam/Rockland Lactation Consortium. We met yesterday and were trying to decide how best to use our efforts to celebrate World Breastfeeding Week this August. We are looking into the possibility of Governor Pataki signing a proclamation regarding breastfeeding and affirming that it is a protected right in New York State. We were wondering if any other NY breastfeeding networks, affiliates, consortiums were interested in joining in this kind of media event if indeed we are successful in getting one pulled together. We were assuming it would take place in Albany. Please e-mail me off list please. Any other ideas for WBW that enhances coalition building within our state?
