BMBFA’s objective is to provide education, valuable resources and ongoing support to black families and public/private agencies that service these families. Their mission is to reduce racial inequities in breastfeeding support for black families while also having a national impact on the reduction of racial disparities in breastfeeding success for black families. BMBFA envisions positive cultural sentiments about breastfeeding, multi-generational breastfeeding support and encouragement within black families and neighborhoods and seeks to build foundational networks of support, and strengthen systems to overcome historical, societal and social barriers to breastfeeding success. Based in the Metro-Detroit area, BMBFA has alliances and partnerships all across the United States.
