I have a unique opportunity and I would like to have your collective wisdom
>to help me develop a convincing letter.  In my community there have been
>eight people assigned to a committee to decide how to spend $50 million
>dollars to promote the health and education of children from
>prenatal to age
>5 years.  I personally know 3 members of this committee and I have their
>respect and I would like to use this edge to convince them that a county
>wide program to support bf would be the ideal way to tackle this monumental
>task.  I think the money could be spent to educate MDs, nurses, medical
students, aides and hospital staff in general so they
>could promote bf as they should be, to help working mothers by
>supplementing
>their incomes at least for the first year so they could bf and if and when
>they have to return to work to provide a work place day care as well as a
>place to pump and to provide the best pumps.  I would also suggest paying
>mothers for bf because they would have healthier children, smarter children
>and nicer children.  Some one please help me put this into a fairly brief
>letter.
>Thanks,
>Vivian
