La Leche League International
| About us | La Leche League International was formed in 1956, in Franklin Park, IL by a group of seven mothers who wanted to provide breastfeeding help and support to interested women. Two mothers, Mary White and Marian Tompson, were breastfeeding their children at a church picnic and many other women expressed interest, or told them how they had wanted to breastfeed but failed. Realizing there was a need for information and advice, Mary and Marian enlisted the help of five of their friends and acquaintances and the seven began to hold meetings. |
