Breastfeeding
The community breastfeeding program (C’MAMAN) was created for the Abitibi-Témiscamingue population in response to the need for support for breastfeeding. It is a mother-to-mother program to reinforce support for breastfeeding mothers and to foster the development of this culture.
The benefits of breastfeeding
Breastfeed anywhere, anytime!
In Québec, every mother has the right to breastfeed their child wherever they deem necessary. This right is guaranteed by the Canadian Charter of Human Rights and Freedoms.
