Indiana Stands for Breastfeeding Collaboration

We think this internet thing is here to stay, so the Indiana State Breastfeeding Coalition is joining the 21st century and developing a website!

The indianastands.org domain will host the official website of the ISBC with our goal of promoting, supporting, and protecting breastfeeding throughout Indiana and beyond.

Indiana Stands for Breastfeeding Collaboration – our goal is to use this website to provide resources, information, and support for breastfeeding advocates, health care providers, community & business leaders and, most importantly, breastfeeding mothers and families in our local communities throughout the state.

If you have questions or are interested in joining ISBC, please contact the website administrator, Dane Nutty, at dnutty@hhcorp.org.
