Diversity Scholarships
World Breastfeeding Week is celebrated from August 1 – 7 in many countries of the world. We celebrate again in 2025 by offering to help IBCLCs, CLCs, aspiring lactation consultants, midwives, and other health professionals further their education with a number of full and half scholarships for our September – December online breastfeeding conference Every drop!. The scholarship includes full registration and continuing education credits. iLactation is proud to have supported health professionals from 30 countries with our Diversity scholarships since they were established in 2013.
