Summer is in full swing, and many LLL USA areas are busy planning conferences and workshops for later in the summer and throughout the fall. The LLL of New York Area Conference — Breastfeeding in the Millennium  — which is scheduled for the end of October, is the latest addition to the events list.

These conferences and workshops are excellent opportunities to gather the latest breastfeeding information and to connect with other breastfeeding/chestfeeding families. If you would like to share information about an upcoming event, please send details to [email protected].
