Celebrating Black Breastfeeding. Honoring Our Stories. Strengthening Our Village.
Black Breastfeeding Week is a time to celebrate the beauty, strength, and legacy of Black families while creating space for honest conversations about breastfeeding, lactation, and the support our communities deserve.
This week centers Black voices, Black stories, and Black leadership in lactation. It’s an opportunity to uplift breastfeeding parents, honor the people who have supported their journeys, and recognize the importance of culturally affirming care and accessible community support.

From sharing our stories and preserving our breastfeeding history to building stronger networks of Black lactation professionals, Black Breastfeeding Week reminds us that community care is essential. When Black families have the knowledge, resources, representation, and support they need, we create healthier beginnings for generations to come. (Black Breastfeeding Week)
Our stories matter. Our babies matter. Our milk matters. Our village matters.
Together, we nurture, support, celebrate, and build a legacy.
