The third week of National Breastfeeding Month is celebrating Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander Breastfeeding Week. 

Every year, a new theme is set for AANHPI Breastfeeding Week and this year’s theme is Telling our Own Stories. Elevating Our Voices. The commemorative week is is led by the Asian & Pacific Islander Breastfeeding Task Force, whose mission is to “decrease inequities and normalize breast/chestfeeding in Los Angeles County’s Asian and Pacific Islander communities by supporting breast/chestfeeding education and support practices.” To learn more about the AANHPI Task Force, view their Facebook Community here.
