World Breastfeeding Week reminds us that every baby deserves the healthiest possible start. This year's theme, "Breastfeeding for a Sustainable Start in Life: Strengthen What Works," celebrates the proven support systems that help families succeed—from healthcare providers to workplaces, communities, and loved ones. Together, we can strengthen what works and help every family thrive.

The Central Illinois Breastfeeding Task Force would like to honor the providers who 'Strengthen What Works' through encouragement, support, and education. Submit your nomination today!
