Breastfeeding Content Sheets

The Breastfeeding Content Sheets were developed by the Local agency Breastfeeding Coordinators workgroup for WIC nutrition staff to provide consistent messaging on breastfeeding promotion and support.  It is expected that the Breastfeeding Content Sheets will be used for training new staff and reminding veteran staff of key information about common breastfeeding topics.  Content sheets are not to be distributed to participants.
