Dear IEBfC Members and Friends,
In light of CORVID-19 and social distancing recommendations for California and the US and the closure of many public venues and the need to focus on our families our Inland Empire Breastfeeding Coalition Board has made the following decisions regarding our March 24th EDUCATION SESSIONS.
We will postpone:
1. The 9:00-11:30am General Education Session “Assisting Mothers with Disabilities with Breastfeeding” presented by with Julie Matheney, MS, CCC-SLP, IBCLC; The LA Lactation Lady.
POSTPONED UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE
2. The 12:00-2:00pm Hospital and Networking Beyond Baby-Friendly Leadership Series Part 3 Session “The Collision of Mothers and Baby-Friendly” presented by Carol Melcher, MPH, BS, RN, Independent Consultant, Speaker, and Trainer.
POSTPONED UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE
Thank you for your understanding and we are working hard to ensure our future educational sessions will continue. We hope you are able to take this time to focus on your family and your health.
