It's Semana de la Lactancia Latina (Latina/x Breastfeeding Week)! The 2026 Semana de la Lactancia Latina theme is Raíces de Amor: Lactancia con Orgulio y Poder (Roots of Love: Breastfeeding with Pride and Power).

This observance was created in 2023 by the Union de Lideres de Lactancia Latino (Latinx Lactation Collective) and is celebrated from September 8-14. The observance aims to uplift voices from the Latino/x community, and celebrate their diverse cultures and resilience. The collective also strives to bring awareness to the unique barriers faced by these communities and advocates for language justice.

Visit the Semana de la Lactancia pages below to learn more and stay engaged throughout the week.

Congratulations to the recipient of this year’s Liquid Gold Award!

CPC Preschool was recognized by BCVC at the August 2026 Ventura County Board of Supervisors Meeting for the exceptional support they provide for breastfeeding and breastfeeding families as a childcare provider. Having a supportive childcare provider helps families meet their breastfeeding goals even when returning to work.

We are excited to focus on some of these areas in the coming year and continue our mission: every family is supported to breastfeed! 🩷

In March, BCVC planned and hosted a Stakeholders Luncheon for community members that impact and work with our families around the county. Our goal was to promote conversation on ways to support and promote breastfeeding in our area.
We are thrilled to share the in-person stakeholder’s meeting was a success! We had about 50 attendees including staff from VCMC and CMH, many local clinics, public health nurses and WIC staff. We also had one chiropractor and the public health medical director in attendance.
Thank you to everyone who came and participated! We are excited to soon share a document highlighting what we all shared and our big takeaways! 🩷🤍🩷🤍
