In an attempt to improve the health outcomes of babies and children, and to set an example to other worksites and businesses in Allen County, the Allen County Health Department has signed a “Breastfeeding Welcome Here” pledge.  

By taking the “Breastfeeding Welcome Here” pledge, the Health Department agrees to provide a welcoming environment where breastfeeding mothers are able to sit anywhere and enjoy a welcoming attitude from staff, management and, to the fullest extent possible, other patrons while breastfeeding.
