Chardá Bell (Melanin Milk)
Access Youth Academy 704 Euclid Ave. San Diego, CA 92114 charda@melaninmilksd.com Free weekly support group, sponsored by Global Communities Details: Tuesdays, 11a-noon This support group was created to fill the geographical need for lactation support in Southeast San Diego, which has been discovered to be a first foods desert. A first food desert is defined as a geographical area where social and economic dynamics unequally constrain breastfeeding when compared with other locations. The healthiest first food is human milk, which is proven to have the best health and survival outcomes for humans. We support families of all feeding preferences and goals from breast/chest feeding to pumping. This group is run by a Black female lactation consultant from Southeast, in order to equitably and organically serve the local Black and Brown community. This group has a focus on support marginalized folks, all are welcome. |
