Healthy Savannah and YMCA Announce Breastfeeding Events and Public Education Efforts

July 29, 2024 – In celebration of National Breastfeeding Month in August, Healthy Savannah and partner organizations are supporting several events planned for new parents, those considering breastfeeding, and breastfeeding advocates. 

The theme for National Breastfeeding Month 2024 is Nourish, Sustain, Thrive; which aims to highlight the importance of lactation for the human life cycle. Human milk provides the nutrients, calories, and fluids needed for a baby’s health, brain development and growth. National Breastfeeding Month also recognizes the work of organizations that make the world more welcoming for new families and parents. But it also serves as a reminder that disparities that discourage breastfeeding still exist.
