USLCA is a nonprofit national association for care providers specializing in lactation care and anyone who supports breastfeeding to improve the health and well-being of children and parents. We are advocates for the special value lactation care providers contribute to the family healthcare team and in other community health settings. A trusted source of continuing education, networking and professional development, USLCA works to help ensure that every family in every community across the country has access to appropriate lactation care.  

We are an open organization and welcome all care providers, students and other individuals who specialize in lactation regardless of their professional designation; the IBCLC® designation is not a requirement.  

 Founded in 2006, USLCA facilitates networking, shared learning and communication among members both online and in-person through conferences, webinars and other events. We are eager to collaborate and build strong relationships with other organizations that promote family health. We also encourage research in all aspects of lactation and publish Clinical Lactation, a respected, peer-reviewed journal featuring practical techniques and the latest in evidence-based care for care providers who work with breastfeeding families. 

USLCA is a designated 501(c)(3) organization with an elected board of directors and a full-time executive director. For more information, please email us at info@uslca.org.
