Breastfeeding Promotion & Support

The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends exclusive breastfeeding for the first six months, and that breastfeeding continue for at least 12 months and beyond.

The Nutrition Division of the La Crosse County Health Department is committed to promoting and supporting mothers in their efforts to nurse their infants.  We support mothers by assisting them to obtain a breast pump through Medicaid or the WIC program.
