Celebrating Lactation Peer Counselor Day!!

The impact of Lactation Peer Counselors extends far beyond one feeding journey. Their work strengthens families, neighborhoods, and future generations.

It's why we're taking today to spotlight Aleecia Hodges and her dedication to lactation education and supporting families over so many years.

Drop some 💜💜💜 to show her some love!!
