You've Chosen to Breastfeed ... We're Here to Help
Personal Help
There are times when a breastfeeding mother needs support and encouragement from someone who has successfully breastfed her own baby. La Leche League Leaders can give you the information and reassurance you need. Accredited volunteer Leaders are experienced breastfeeding mothers and have access to over 40 years of experience, research, testing, and teaching about breastfeeding.
If you have any questions about breastfeeding, whether before your baby's birth, during the first few days, or later, help is available via telephone counseling. | |

Group Meetings
All pregnant women and nursing mothers are invited to participate in our informal monthly meetings. Establishing a network of support in your decision to breastfeed your baby is an important element of successful breastfeeding. Babies are always welcome at La Leche League meetings.
Topics covered during a series of meetings include:
Each La Leche League Group maintains a lending library of books and literature on childbirth, breastfeeding, parenting, and nutrition. La Leche League's own publication, THE WOMANLY ART OF BREASTFEEDING, is available for loan or purchase.
About La Leche League
La Leche League is an international nonprofit nonsectarian organization dedicated to providing education, information, support, and encouragement to women who want to breastfeed.
When you join La Leche League, you participate in an international mother-to-mother network for breastfeeding help and parenting support. Paying your annual dues of $40 brings you six bimonthly issues of NEW BEGINNINGS, a magazine with warm, personal stories from breastfeeding parents, book reviews, up-to-date research, and much more. Membership benefits you and ensures that LLLI will be available for future generations.
