La Leche League is an
international, nonprofit, nonsectarian organization dedicated to providing
education, information, support, and encouragement to women who choose to
breastfeed.
Breastfeeding is
natural, but that doesn't mean women can do it by instinct alone. Like
childbirth, breastfeeding is easier with help. Problems can usually be
avoided with preparation and information. All breastfeeding mothers and all
mothers-to-be are welcome to come to our free meetings (nursing children
are welcome too!) or to call for further information. La Leche League
offers:
- Mother-to-mother support
- Monthly meetings
- Telephone help from
accredited Leaders
- Lending library with
books on childbirth, breastfeeding, and related subjects
- Parenting Conference!
