Building Breastfeeding Family Friendly Communities: A Child Survival Strategy

Love Anderson, co-founder of Breastfeeding Family Friendly Communities, presents for the West Virginia Perinatal Partnership and the West Virginia Breastfeeding Institute.

Breastfeeding is one of the most powerful and cost-effective child survival interventions we have. It is also one of the easiest for a community to leave entirely to individual mothers, as though it were a private decision made in a private room.

This session is about what changes when a whole community decides otherwise: when employers, childcare, healthcare, and local government each take up the part of this that belongs to them.
