How To Find Breastfeeding Support
La Leche League has been supporting breastfeeding mothers for more than 50 years. We know that while breastfeeding is natural, it doesn’t always come easily. Across the globe, mothers find vital support from La Leche League’s volunteer Leaders on the phone, in email, and during monthly Group Meetings. La Leche League supports mothers from pregnancy through weaning, and everything in between. If you are a mother who has questions or needs help, here’s how to reach us.
- Find your local Group and call the Leader listed. (It's FREE!)
- Attend a Group Meeting in your community (It's FREE!)
- Explore La Leche League International’s Answer Pages (FREE!)
- Join the LLLI Mother-to-Mother Support Group on Facebook (FREE!)
