Beyond COVID-19: Breastfeeding Webinar #1 – Building Community Partnerships to Promote and Support Breastfeeding

To support Healthy Start grantees in providing breastfeeding support and meeting the two breastfeeding benchmarks, the Healthy Start TASC held a three-part Beyond COVID-19: Breastfeeding Webinar Series. The goal of this webinar series was to enhance and strengthen Healthy Start grantees’ capacity to meet their client’s breastfeeding needs as we continue to navigate the changing landscape of the COVID-19 pandemic. The series featured Cathy Carothers, IBCLC, FILCA, of Every Mother, Inc., who facilitated the previous TASC’s COVID-19 and Breastfeeding Webinar Series last fall.

During this first session, which served as a breakout session during the 2021 Healthy Start Virtual Grantee Meeting, Cathy discussed building community partnerships to promote and support breastfeeding.
