Nursing mothers at the Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµ now have a dedicated, private space to feed their babies or pump breast milk. The Alaska Division of Public Health awarded a group of Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµ faculty, staff and students an Alaska Workplace Breastfeeding Support Project grant through its section of Women's, Children's and Family Health. The project aims to help Alaska organizations implement workplace policies and spaces to accommodate breast-feeding mothers.
