COVID-19 and Breastfeeding Study

Researchers at the University of Idaho and University of Rochester are currently recruiting women with COVID-19 who are currently breastfeeding to determine if the transmission of the virus occurs through breast milk or breastfeeding. To participate in the study you must be at least 18 years old, currently breastfeeding, and have tested positive for COVID-19 in the past 48 hours or awaiting the results of the test.

Safe Sleep & Breastfeeding Conversations Module - Call for Module Reviewers

NACCHO is a member of the National Action Partnership to Promote Safe Sleep Improvement and Innovation Network (NAPPSS). Currently, we are in the process of reviewing modules for maternal child health providers. These modules were created to help shift the approaches that have often been used in promoting safe sleep and breastfeeding. We would like your assistance in creating a tool for community organizations and workers to use the modules efficiently.
