What’s New at NLCA:
Wall of Gratitude
At NLCA, we celebrate IBCLCs® every day.
This March 5, 2025, on IBCLC Appreciation Day, we invite YOU to thank a special IBCLC® in your life by nominating them to our digital Wall of Gratitude.
NLCA’s digital Wall of Gratitude commemorates the invaluable clinical care IBCLCs® provide to breastfeeding families and the resulting improved health of our communities.
Your donation of $10 not only adds your favorite IBCLC to our digital Wall of Gratitude but will help NLCA advance the profession through advocacy with federal and state legislatures, and in the market and workplaces.
Don’t delay. Let’s fill our wall with gratitude*! At NLCA, IBCLC®s are at the heart of what we do.
*Honorees will be listed on our website and highlighted in our social media.

The Center for Lactation Equity (the Center) is the cornerstone of all the work we do here at NLCA.

As part of this conversation, we welcome feedback at any time to continue to grow this inclusive community.
