Do you work in a U.S. maternity care facility?

We’re inviting maternity care staff to take a short, anonymous survey (5–10 minutes) about experiences implementing the Ten Steps to Successful Breastfeeding—what’s working, what’s challenging, and what support would help.

✅ This survey is different from the CDC’s mPINC survey. mPINC focuses on hospital level practices; this survey is about your firsthand experience providing care.

✅ We want to hear from everyone—even if others from your hospital also see or complete it.

⏰ The survey is only open for a short time.

👏 We’re so excited! In the fall of 2027, CGBI’s Mary Rose Tully Training Initiative will be transitioning into a formal graduate certificate program. This is an excellent opportunity for students interested in lactation at the Gillings School of Global Public Health and graduate students in other UNC Chapel Hill programs to earn a certificate with their degree: https://sph.unc.edu/sph-news/mary-rose-tully-training-initiative-transitions-to-a-unc-chapel-hill-certificate-in-lactation-consultant-education/
