Breastfeeding Conference

Woman breastfeeding her baby

Every other year, the Olson Center for Women’s Health provides a one-day educational conference for health care providers on the benefits of breastfeeding.  Our conference focuses on the breastfeeding educational needs for physicians (OB-GYN and family practice), nurse midwives, lactation consultants, nurses, registered dietitians, social workers, and breastfeeding advocates.  Continuing education is provided at the in-person conference.  Lectures will no longer be recorded for later viewing.
