The second week of National Breastfeeding Month begins with Indigenous Milk Medicine Week. The Indigenous Milk Medicine Collective sponsors the observance every year.

What is the Milk Medicine Collective?

“The Milk Medicine Collective is a grassroots organization of Native Women, two-spirit, and femme lactation providers, lactivists and supporters. We work to increase support and resources for Native first food experiences, to promote healing and wellness, and to push for access, opportunity, visibility and equity in Indigenous Milk experiences."
