Breastfeeding Toolkit for Businesses

The NYC Department of Health's Center for Health Equity and Community Wellness worked with local companies to create a breastfeeding toolkit that can help small businesses make their spaces more welcoming for breastfeeding. This is part of our effort to empower new mothers to be able to breastfeed comfortably and safely in a public setting.
