The Love For Latch initiative aims to promote, protect, and support breastfeeding and lactation for everyone. We use “women,” “mother,” “maternal,” and other gendered terms to describe the health behaviors, health status, and health outcomes of people who experience pregnancy and give birth. In using this language, BPHC recognizes this population as a category of people who experience pregnancy and give birth to be inclusive of cis-gender, transgender, gender-diverse, and non-binary persons.
