Our purpose is based on three important principles:
- First, to serve as a continuing education and networking resource for its members.
- Second, LCAGW promotes the professional growth of lactation consultants by sharing knowledge gained through research and clinical experience.
- And lastly, we strive to enhance the reputation, image, and credibility of International Board Certified Lactation Consultants (IBCLC’s), the International Board of Lactation Consultant Examiners, and the International Lactation Consultant Association (ILCA) in a responsible and professional manner. We are continually developing further goals and objectives as determined by the members.
