IBCLC Day

IBCLC DAY - March 3, 2010

IBCLCs: Experience You Can Trust

March 3, 2010 is the 9th annual IBCLC Day, a global celebration of the important role of International Board Certified Lactation Consultants as part of the healthcare team supporting breastfeeding families.

This year’s theme, “IBCLCs: Experience You Can Trust,” is a reminder of the rich 25-year history of the lactation consultation profession, which celebrates its silver anniversary in 2010. [Check out the 25th Anniversary page of the website and the 2010 Annual Conference to learn more about the exciting festivities being planned!] This year’s theme is also a reminder that IBCLCs undergo a rigorous process to become credentialed, and possess knowledge and expertise that new families and medical professionals can count on.
