Recording of Cultural Dimensions in Promoting, Protecting, and Supporting Lactation in East Asian Communities
A webinar featuring Tonya Lang MPH, CHES, IBCLC and Grace Yee: Retired IBCLC, San Francisco WIC, CBC Board Member, AANHPI LC Co-Founder. Despite large numbers in California, Asian Americans, Native Hawaiians, and Pacific Islanders (AANHPI) have remained largely invisible. This presentation will address the diversity within the AANHPI umbrella; describe how breast/chestfeeding and human milk feeding data on AANHPIs are often excluded or reported as an aggregate category; and share insights on what may influence infant feeding and family care practices in AANHPI families.
