"A majority of women return to work or school after the birth of their children. The return can be a stressful event, especially if a mom is breastfeeding and needs to pump while away from her child. Many policies and programs have been put in place to support families as they transition back to work and colleges and universities are no exception.
With information for organizations of any kind, Breastfeeding Best Practices in Higher Education, Michele Vancour, PhD, MPH, and Michele Griswold, MPH, RN, IBCLC, outline lactation policies and practices at several universities in the U.S. including George Washington University of Rhode Island, University of California Davis, University of Arizona, Michigan State University and Johns Hopkins University. The authors aim to provide information to help others implement similar programs by sharing policies, guidelines, and even novel ideas such as Healthy People 2020, the Affordable Care Act, The Business Case for Breastfeeding, and The Surgeon Genera's Call to Action to support breastfeeding have set objectives for all employers to meet. This reference will be a helpful tool for universities, businesses and organizations everywhere !"[Quatrième de couverture]
