Fathers Supporting Breastfeeding

Fathers Supporting Breastfeeding is an FNS project targeted to African American fathers so that they may positively impact a mother’s decision to breastfeed. The project is part of a continual effort to increase breastfeeding initiation and duration rates among African American women by involving fathers in breastfeeding promotion efforts.

Materials can be ordered online @Fathers Supporting Breastfeeding. Materials include: 2 posters, 2 educational brochures, and a video with a discussion guide. The accompanying materials are designed to promote breastfeeding awareness and to support and strengthen the role of fathers in the family.
