The Surgeon General’s Call to Action to Support Breastfeeding

By U.S. Department of Health and Human Services

Excerpt

This Call to Action describes specific steps people can take to participate in a society-wide approach to support mothers and babies who are breastfeeding. This approach will increase the public health impact of everyone’s efforts, reduce inequities in the quality of health care that mothers and babies receive, and improve the support that families receive in employment and community settings.
