Who We Are

Mission: To reduce racial inequities in breastfeeding support for Black families.

BMBFA’s goal is to have a national impact on the reduction of racial disparities in breastfeeding success for black families. This goal will be achieved through the objectives of providing education, valuable resources and ongoing support to black families and public/private agencies that service these families. BMBFA aims to build foundational networks of support, and strengthen systems to overcome historical, societal and social barriers to breastfeeding success.

What We Do

BMBFA works to connect mothers and expectant mothers to a community of support to overcome historical, societal, and social barriers to breastfeeding success and overall success in early motherhood. Some of BMBFA’s programming includes:

  • Community-Based Doula Program
  • Black Mothers’ Breastfeeding Club
  • Breastfeeding Helpline
  • Breastfeeding Support Workshops
