The times are finally changing, and as supporters in the lactation community, it's important for us to educate ourselves and change with them. This year's annual meeting topic is an important one for us as we navigate today's families and give our support.
This year, we welcome Rachelle Markham, IBCLC, RLC as she guides us in Building a Queer Inclusive and Trans Friendly Practice! She lives in San Diego where she supports families with breastfeeding at Wellness Lactation.
What you need to know to make your practice a welcoming, safe environment for your Queer & Trans clients/patients.
With 63% of LGBTQIA+ Millennials making plans to start and/or grow their family, the chances of your practice serving this community will increase over the coming years. In our heteronomative culture, it can be hard to find LGBTQ+ inclusive care that doesn't cause harm. If you want to learn how to build a Queer/Trans inclusive practice, come learn 14 steps to growing a Queer/Trans inclusive lactation private practice.
