The Ana Gract Project - Le Leche League CT - Fresh Check Day

We're going to open our first show of April celebrating the short but beautiful life of Ana Grace Marquez-Greene, who was tragically lost at Sandy Hook Elementary School. We'll talk with her mom about "April Is For Ana," a month-long program of activities showcasing the Ana Grace Project and its "Love Wins" initiative. Then we're going to turn to the topic of breast feeding with a representative of La Leche League CT - part of a global volunteer group helping breastfeeding families. We'll cover the benefits of breastfeeding for mom and baby, the group's recent Health Care Provider Seminar, state laws on the subject, as well as common myths about breastfeeding. And we'll wrap up chatting with the very first mental health counselor with the CT Community College system, who is introducing "Fresh Check Day" at Norwalk Community College as a means of preventing suicide, and breaking down stigmas against students with mental health concerns.
