Special Father's Day Edition: Reaching Our Brothers Everywhere
Presenter: G. WESLEY BUGG, ESQ., LLM
Date: 12 June 2019
Time: 7:00pm - 8:00pm EST USA
Registration: napplsc.org/Webinars

Summary:
Wesley is doing great work with both ROSE and ROBE, a program of ROSE dedicated to educating, equipping and empowering men on a national scale to positively impact African-American breastfeeding rates and infant mortality. Based in Decatur, Georgia, ROBE also operates in Mississippi, Florida, Ohio, Texas, and California. They coordinate fatherhood forums and conference presentations; connect with national projects and programs to share resources; and work with Healthy Start male initiatives in several states.

“Our goal is to promote health equity,” Wesley says. “It is vital that communities have the needed resources, information and support to make informed choices on infant feeding. We know that our communities are ‘resource deprived’ due to many reasons including systemic racism. African-American men have not been included in the gathering and dissemination of breastfeeding and safe sleep knowledge, and therefore, pregnant women and babies of color are disproportionately ill and dying. We plan to rectify that disparity.” ... See MoreSee Less

Baby Café USA has released a video titled "The Baby Café in Buffalo, NY." The video highlights the Durham Baby Café in Buffalo, New York, showcasing the effectiveness of implementing the Baby Café model in a local way to meet the specific needs of a community. Listen to their Executive Director, Revered Diann Holt, talk about how their café, which is located within the Central City Café Soup Kitchen, offers attendees the lactation care and information they need in a welcoming, non-medical environment where they can get their kids fed at the same time. Once established, their café quickly saw the opportunity they had to welcome pregnant people in for education and fellowship alongside their nursing peers. Today they bring educators from many sectors of maternal and child health to talk about lactation, healthy pregnancy, and the realities of parenthood. vimeo.com/326350682?eType=EmailBlastContent&eId=6f6e4402-9d29-41df-b63b-81a17bb710b4Pregnant women and new mothers benefit from fellowship, education, duolas, and lactation consultants at this New York State Baby Cafe.
