August 1 - 7, 2020

A week to focus on the benefits of breastfeeding and the barriers facing Camden moms.

BREASTFEEDING DIVERSITY
There are many ways to provide breast milk - breastfeed, pump, donor milk and more. We applaud them all and the women who choose breast milk. Throughout the week, visit the Camden Healthy Start Facebook page to hear from South Jersey moms about why they chose breast milk. Please like, comment and share our posts and upload your own photo or video testimonial using the hashtag #CamdenCelebratesBreastfeeding.
