The mission of La Leche League, USA is to help mothers to breastfeed through mother-to-mother support, encouragement, information, and education, and to promote a better understanding of breastfeeding as an important element in the healthy development of the baby and mother.

August is always a month for celebrating breastfeeding!

This will be a family beach night.  Bring anything you like to have with you on the beach including dinner or snacks.
