  • Who are we? Global Military Lactation Community is a worldwide network of lactation support and advocacy for military families. We are all volunteers, and our purpose is to provide consistent, high-quality peer support through local chapters and liaisons at U.S. military installations, to increase access to accredited lactation professionals for all military families, and to provide a channel to raise awareness and solutions for the concerns of military breastfeeding families. All proceeds support the operational costs incurred to sustain our nonprofit organization and help to continue the support as we open more chapters around the globe. As a reminder, all orders include FREE U.S./APO shipping!
