The private funding they rely on to operate ended yesterday. The Newman Breastfeeding Clinic and Institute needs our help to keep the clinic and the website (Newman's Visual Guide to Breastfeeding, with all the helpful info and videos) open.
Here is the original alert I read (from Mothering):
Breastfeeding Clinic May be Forced to Close
When Toronto mothers have problems breastfeeding, the Newman Breastfeeding Clinic and Institute has given them support. Now, due to lack of funding, the clinic may be forced to close in the coming months.
Shawne McKeown, writer for CityNews.ca, explains that "The clinic's website, which offers free tip sheets and video instruction, has also served as an invaluable resource to women and educators around the globe. It, too, will cease to exist if funding isn't found."
