URGENT HELP NEEDED: Pregnant Workers Act Bill for 2019 KY Legislature
Senate Bill 18, the Pregnant Workers Act, is only ONE VOTE AWAY from passage!
It is on the Orders of the Day for Thursday, March 28, when the KY House reconvenes. We need to flood the representatives with messages urging a vote, so that it doesn't get lost in the last minute chaos!

Congratulations New IBCLCs!
Did you Certify or Recertify in 2018?
Let us know!
IBLCE does not share the names of new certificants with the professional organizations. Take a moment to let us know if you're recently IBCLC certified or recertified by emailing info@klicbreastfeeding.org. If you are a resident of Kentucky or Southern Indiana, we'd like to recognize your achievement.
Also, if you achieved another lactation certificate, such as CLC, CLS, or CLE, please let us know. These companies do not share the names of their graduates with us either.
Consider joining KLIC, your professional association! See the info above!
