🎁 This , help BreastfeedLA continue our life-changing program at Century Regional Detention Facility.

We sit with justice-impacted pregnant and lactating people who are separated from their newborns — yet determined to give their babies the healthiest start possible. This looks like:

1️⃣ 1-on-1 breast / chestfeeding support
2️⃣ prenatal education
3️⃣ shipping support for expressed milk

It is the ONLY program of its kind in California‼️ And funding ran out on June 30th.

Your support today will help us keep this groundbreaking initiative, alongside the LA County Department of Public Health and the African American Infant and Maternal Mortality Doula Program.

Give to healthy starts:
