How can I sign up for a prenatal breastfeeding class or support group?
We’re so happy you’re interested in joining us for a class or group! All sessions are held via Zoom and are designed to enrich your breastfeeding journey. Classes and groups are free for WIC participants.
Breastfeeding Preparation Classes
Your Breastfeeding Peer Counselor (BFPC) will send text invitations throughout your pregnancy with instructions on how to register.
Classes are hosted by our breastfeeding specialist (IBCLC) and supported by BFPCs. They provide a comprehensive overview of breastfeeding to help expectant parents get off to a strong start. Classes typically last about 1½ hours, and questions are always welcome!
