Promoting And Supporting Optimal Breastfeeding Practices With The Utimate Goal

Statement from Surgeon General, Dr. Regina M. Benjamin, Regarding World Breastfeeding Week (Aug. 1-7, 2010)

WASHINGTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--World Breastfeeding Week provides an opportunity to highlight the benefits of breastfeeding and to make people aware of how we can lend support to mothers who want to breastfeed. The Affordable Care Act that was enacted earlier this year takes some significant strides in support of breastfeeding.

I hope World Breastfeeding Week will help Americans become more aware of these resources and use them throughout the year.
