Or at least it is to me :-)
We have had 2 IBCLC's here at the WIC program in Miami Florida (Heidi
Agostinho and myself) ever since we both came on board 6 years ago. This
year, for the first time, 4 of our coworkers in the Breastfeeding Program
sat for their IBLCE board exam. Two started off as WIC participants, who
first became volunteer Peer Counselors, then employees.
Now I am thrilled to share with you that they have ALL passed, instantly
tripling the number of IBCLC's on staff at WIC in Miami-Dade County!
Well...I suppose "instantly" is the wrong word to choose; this has been
years in the making.
Even more than being happy for our program, I am happy for all 4 of these
incredible women, whom I am proud to call my friends. Every single one of
them deserves a round of applause for their hard work, their passion for
breastfeeding, their compassion for other women, and their courage in the
face of other (in some cases seriously life-altering) problems going on in
their lives while they have pursued this career.
My congratulations to them and to all of the newly accredited IBCLCs around
the globe!
Regina Roig-Lane, BS IBCLC for a very proud Miami-Dade County WIC
