The Breastfeeding Equity Center is engaged in research to help all families reach their infant feeding goals. Currently, our directors are investigating receipt of Baby-Friendly services among Black and White patients, funded by the BU Center for Antiracist research. We are also tracking human milk feeding both inpatient and outpatient among BMC patients, to identify targets for future interventions and services to support patients’ infant feeding goals.
