If you are a breastfeeding mother who enjoys talking about breastfeeding and passing on the support you received as you started out with breastfeeding, consider becoming a volunteer breastfeeding counselor! Volunteer as a leader with La Leche League worldwide or become a peer counselor through the Women, Infants and Children programs in the United States. Check out these resources from LLL and WIC respectively: Thinking about LLL leadership? and Interested in Becoming a Peer Counselor? (note that this resource is from the WIC offices in New York — each state will have its own, but similar, WIC programs and procedures).
