The Breastfeeding Resource Guide

The Greenwood Alliance for Breastfeeding Cyber-Support (Greenwood ABCs) was developed out of a need for a community alliance that could offer formal support for breastfeeding. Greenwood has so many wonderful resources for breastfeeding mothers, but without a community alliance, many women remained unaware of the information. The Greenwood ABCs is an interdisciplinary group of professionals, mothers, and community leaders that serve as a forum for addressing breastfeeding issues. We hope that you will find this website helpful and easy to access.
