OUR COMMUNITIES

The communities listed below have committed to implementing the Ten Steps to a Breastfeeding Family Friendly Community, tailored to meet the unique needs and strengths of their local families and municipalities. Each community is working toward creating an environment that supports breastfeeding, chestfeeding, and human milk feeding families through collaborative efforts, cultural inclusivity, and sustainable practices.

From urban centers to rural areas, these communities are fostering change by addressing systemic barriers, promoting equitable access to lactation resources, and engaging local leaders, businesses, and organizations. Together, they are building a network of support that improves health outcomes for families and strengthens community resilience.
