La Leche League is an international, nonprofit, nonsectarian organization dedicated to providing education, information, support, and encouragement to women who want to breastfeed. All women interested in breastfeeding are invited to attend our meetings or to call our Leaders for help.
Our League meetings offer a unique opportunity for you to learn more about the natural way of nurturing your baby. La Leche League Leaders, experienced nursing mothers, are well prepared to answer your questions. Firsthand accounts about breastfeeding and practical mothering tips are readily shared by all at the meetings. The Group provides the womanly support that is so crucial to the nursing mother. Of course, babies are always welcome at LLL functions.

Membership in La Leche League is $40 for one year. The membership fee helps support our local Group (La Leche League of Teaneck) as well as breastfeeding on a worldwide scale. Membership benefits include a one year subscription to our bi-monthly journal, New Beginnings, and a discount on items purchased from the La Leche League International Catalogue. The membership fee is tax-deductible. Membership is not a requirement to attend our meetings.
Donations are also graciously accepted so that you may help La Leche League continue to help others as you have been helped.
