I don't know about a 16 hour course, but I would consider contacting the Center for Breastfeeding. They teach the 40 hour Certified Lactation Counselor course which is an excellent starting point, perhaps it can be distilled and customized. I imagine your group's needs are not the first or last that would benefit.
