This week, we are celebrating Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander Breastfeeding Week was created in 2021 by the Asian Pacific Islander Breastfeeding Task Force. This year, the theme is: Better Data, Better Care for AANHPI Families. This week is celebrated annually from August 15-21.
The mission of this dedicated week is to decrease inequities and normalize chest/breastfeeding in AANHPI communities by improving breast/chestfeeding education and support practices.
This week will explore why data equity matters for AANHPI families by examining the current maternal and child health data landscape, highlighting California statewide efforts to improve data collection and representation, and uplifting community perspectives on what better data should look like.
Join these efforts by registering for a two-hour webinar on data equity and breastfeeding among AANHPI families discussing why data equity matters and current approaches to addressing gaps. The conversation will feature community voices discussing community strengths and challenges, how to support families, and how to work respectfully with communities.
