We're super excited to be able to invite our members to nominate for a position on the Board of Directors for LCANZ - there are a few vacant positions & you may be just the person we need! You don't need board member experience. Your voice, skills & passion are what we are looking for to help to create a diverse board that represents our diverse members across Australia & New Zealand.

With over 600 LCANZ Members, the Board plays a vital role in helping IBCLC's thrive across Australia and New Zealand. This is your chance to contribute to the growth, visibility, and strength of our profession - and connect with a passionate group of peers while doing it.

The current board are active professional individuals who are working within the field of lactation & breastfeeding in various roles across Australia & NZ. The expectation is to commit some time to the role without any added stress or burden.

Check out the slides to see a little of what's involved, head to the email members received on the 8th of September for more details & to download the nomination form.
