National WIC Breastfeeding Week (August 1-7)

Each year in August, National WIC Breastfeeding Week is celebrated in conjunction with World Breastfeeding Week to promote and support breastfeeding as the best source of nutrition for a baby's first year of life. This year's World Breastfeeding Week theme, Prioritize Breastfeeding - Create Sustainable Support Systems - will focus on environment and climate change. It will highlight our roles in supporting breastfeeding to create a sustainable environment while simultaneously reducing the impact of climate change caused by artificial feeding.
