For Aspiring Lactation Consultants

Join us as we build a network of IBCLC mentors and aspiring IBCLCs.   

As advocates for the profession, the Massachusetts Lactation Consultant Association recognizes that we urgently need to increase access to mentorship opportunities for aspiring IBCLCs. In particular, we recognize that we must build mentorship programs that support members of under-represented communities to join our field. 

Education + Clinical Hours + Exam = Certification

Please support MLCA’s strategic goal to increase access to the IBCLC profession. Your donation to the mentorship fund will support our mentor program and provide financial aid to assist aspiring IBCLCs with the costs of certifying as an IBCLC.
