This week, we are celebrating Semana de La Lactancia Latina! This year's theme is: Roots of Love: Breastfeeding with Pride and Power. Created in 2023 by the Union de Lideres de Lactancia Latino (Latinx Lactation Collective), this week is being celebrated on September 8-14, 2026.

The observance aims to uplift voices from the Latino/x community, and celebrate the diverse cultures and resilience of Latino communities. The collective also strives to bring awareness to the unique barriers faced by these communities and advocates for language justice.
