Breastfeeding

Our goal is to promote and support breastfeeding statewide.

• Mothers who breastfeed may be eligible to receive WIC benefits longer than non-breastfeeding mothers.
• Mothers who exclusively breastfeed their infants will receive an enhanced food package.
• Mothers who breastfeed may be eligible to receive breast pumps to help support their breastfeeding.
• Mothers who breastfeed may receive follow-up support through International Board Certified Lactation Consultants (IBCLCs) or breastfeeding peer counselors where available.
