Welcome to the Annual Conference on Breastfeeding Promotion and Support in the United States! Our conference is a unique platform for sharing knowledge, best practices, and the latest research on supporting mothers and babies through breastfeeding. We bring together medical professionals, community leaders, lactation consultants, researchers, and anyone interested in promoting maternal and infant health.
The goal of the conference is to promote breastfeeding as a natural and healthy choice, supporting families every step of the way. We strive to create a supportive environment for mothers and their babies where they can receive the support, knowledge, and resources they need to breastfeed successfully.
Our Goals
- Education and Training: We offer the opportunity to learn about the latest scientific research and clinical practices that emphasize the importance of breastfeeding for maternal and child health;
- Collaboration and sharing: Our conference brings together top experts to discuss challenges and opportunities in the field, share practical advice and promote better standards of support;
- Empowering Mothers: We work to create an environment that supports mothers returning to work and helps them to continue breastfeeding;
- Policy and Community Support: We promote policies that support breastfeeding mothers at both the state and local levels.
Why it matters
Breastfeeding is critical to the health and well-being of babies and their mothers. It reduces the risk of infections, obesity, and chronic diseases in children, and promotes faster recovery and psycho-emotional health for mothers. However, many women face challenges ranging from lack of awareness to lack of support at work and in the community.
We see it as our task to help overcome these obstacles. The conference is an opportunity not only to share experiences and knowledge, but also to find real solutions to these challenges.
We invite:
- Doctors, midwives and nurses;
- Lactation consultants;
- Representatives of community and non-profit organizations;
- Policy makers and legislators;
- Employers interested in creating a maternal friendly environment;
- Families and anyone who supports breastfeeding.
Our achievements
The conference has become a key event for professionals involved in supporting breastfeeding. Each year more and more attendees join us, confirming the growing importance of this topic. We are proud that our event promotes meaningful change to improve the health of future generations.
