Populations with Lower Rates of Breastfeeding: A Summary of Findings

Description

Although breastfeeding initiation in Ontario is 91.8%, there are populations with lower rates of breastfeeding.

The Best Start Resource Centre has completed four research validation strategies to confirm populations with lower rates of breastfeeding in Ontario as well as breastfeeding strategies that are effective with these populations. The resulting report highlights information about trends in Ontario, barriers, effective and promising strategies, and recommendations to reach populations with lower rates of breastfeeding.
