Celebrate Black Breastfeeding Week with Chicago South Side Birth Center

Join us for a joyful afternoon of family, food, music, and the community care that grows our communities.

Black Breastfeeding Week exists because the stories, science, and support around breast/chestfeeding have rarely centered us. For generations, our families have nourished babies through impossible conditions. This day honors that lineage — and builds the village our next generation deserves.

Whether you’re nursing now, considering it, supporting a loved one, or simply showing up in solidarity — you belong here.
