Love Makes A Family: Supporting LGBTQIA and Gender Non-Conforming Families
As lactation professionals and supporters, we will encounter LGBTQIA+ and gender non-conforming families in health care settings, private visits and support groups. Deepen your knowledge of the unique needs of queer, trans and gender-non conforming parents during lactation. This session allows participants to explore our awareness, ask questions in a safe space and develop the tools to meet all families where they are.
This lecture was originally offered at our 2018 GOLD Lactation Conference.
