Celebrating Black Breastfeeding Week at University of Chicago Medicine

National Breastfeeding Month at UCM

In honor of National Breastfeeding Month and Black Breastfeeding week August 26th-30th, the University of Chicago Medicine FEEDS team hosted an informational table outside of the DCAM clinic to spread awareness about and celebrate lactation! We had great participation and were pleased to offer treats, educational handouts, copies of Illinois state laws protecting breastfeeding, and raffle off three prizes to patients and staff who stopped by the table. Thank you to everyone who helped make this event happen, and all the patients and staff who participated!
