Your financial support and/or participation as a member of District of Columbia
Breastfeeding Coalition (DCBFC) enables our Coalition to thrive. Membership dues fund
advocacy, outreach efforts, scholarships, and allow us to stay viable as a non-profit
501 (C) (3). Our organization is focused on promoting, protecting, and supporting culturally-
sensitive programs that build awareness and understanding of the preventive health
benefits of breastfeeding. Through its breastfeeding research, advocacy, and educational
activities, the coalition seeks to reduce health disparities-- particularly among the most
vulnerable infants and children living in our communities.
