As FirstRight continues to ask Denny’s to revisit its policy on breastfeeding, it asks breastfeeding advocates to take the following action:
FirstRight encourages all breastfeeding advocates to make calls to their local Denny’s restaurants and franchises to inquire about their breastfeeding policy and encourage them to adopt policies that are at minimum in accordance with applicable state laws. Contact information for local Denny’s restaurants can be found at the Denny’s Store Locator.
FirstRight also recommends making calls (1-800-733-6697 and also 864-597-8000) and emails to the Denny’s Headquarters through their online contact form to support them in adopting a brand-wide breastfeeding friendly policy that includes training of all employees. FirstRight asks those who contact Denny’s to email a summary of their conversation to taskforce@firstright.org including the restaurant location and name and title of the employee with whom you spoke.
FirstRight expects that these actions will support Denny’s in clarifying in the coming weeks their willingness to follow state laws and their desire to welcome breastfeeding mothers. If this is not the case, further actions may be considered by FirstRight at that time.
