VICTORY! Pregnant Workers Act Signed into Law!
Senate Bill 18, the Pregnant Workers Act, was signed into law by Gov. Bevin. This is a great leap forward for protecting breastfeeding, working mothers.
If you are interested in working on implementing this new law, please contact Doraine Bailey, KLIC Legislative Liaison, at doraineb@hotmail.com.

Congratulations New IBCLCs!
Did you Certify or Recertify in 2018 or 2019?
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!
