Develop a network of support

LLLI Mother-to-Mother Support Network
The hallmark of LLLI and its uniqueness is its mother-to-mother support network. The LLLI mission is carried out in 70 countries by thousands of accredited volunteer Leaders—mothers who have breastfed their own children and received training by LLLI—who provide breastfeeding information and support at no cost to the mother. Support is offered in the form of:

• One-to-one personal visits
• Phone and email support
• Mother forums on our LLLI website, llli.org
