OUR MISSION
The Breastfeeding Coalition of Delaware (BCD) is a statewide entity that links families and organizations to improve the health of women and children,
while being inclusive of diversity. It works collaboratively to protect, promote, and support breastfeeding, and serves as an expert voice and a clearinghouse of breastfeeding information.

To achieve this mission, the Coalition’s goals are to:
  • Increase public awareness of the benefits of breastfeeding for babies, mothers, families and communities.
  • Educate professionals so they can better support the breastfeeding family.
  • Promote communication and collaboration among individuals and organizations working to support breastfeeding.
  • Promote development of the profession of International Board Certified Lactation Consultants.

Please view the BCD's Strategic Plan, Diversity Values Statement & Guiding Principles all of which will guide our work from 2019-2024. We welcome you to join in these exciting efforts!
