East Bay Health Lactation Room Naming Rights
At East Bay Health we have fully launched our primary care clinic and our community kitchen, and made these services free for members of our community in-need. We are now focusing on the expansion of our newborn and lactation support programs and looking for a sponsor to endow our Lactation Room. This private room across from our clinic offers a safe and inviting space for mothers to air their concerns, consult with our doctors, and practice breastfeeding with and for their little one. East Bay Health's Newborn and Lactation Support Service currently provides round-the-clock care for mothers during their newborn's first month of life. Starting next month, East Bay Health is launching our Postpartum Support Group, in which our pediatrician Dr. Maha Hanna and local therapist Dr. Katelyn Simmons will lead conversation and help new mothers find togetherness in community. Help us support these programs and we will commemorate our Lactation Room to you with a plaque.
