The mission of Breastfeeding USA is to provide evidence-based breastfeeding information and support, and to promote breastfeeding as the biological and cultural norm.
We accomplish this through a network of accredited breastfeeding counselors and comprehensive resources for the benefit of mothers and babies, families, and communities.

WHAT DOES EVIDENCE-BASED MEAN?
Simply put, evidence-based means something is backed up by current science and research.
WHY DOES THIS MATTER?
When it comes to most things in life, research is always growing and changing as new studies are done. Part of making an informed choice is having the full story and all of the facts available before making a decision.Â
At Breastfeeding USA, we think this is important - especially when it comes to the choices we make about how we feed our babies!
