About the Breastfeeding Collaborative of DEW

We are a local collaborative of public agencies, private businesses and parents that promote a supportive culture of breastfeeding in our community. We want to help increase the number of families that start breastfeeding, exclusively breastfeed for the first six months and continue to breastfeed for two years and beyond. If you would like to join the collaborative please contact Public Health

“Breastfeeding: Foundation of Life” is the slogan for the 2018 World Breastfeeding Week. “In a world filled with inequality, crisis and poverty, breastfeeding is the foundation of lifelong good health for babies and mothers”. In partnership with other agencies, WABA contributes to the global survival, health and well being of mothers and babies worldwide, linking breastfeeding with goals of decreasing poverty and sustaining a healthy planet.
