Our members are invited to write to their MP to ask him/her to consider setting up a working group to study our demands. It will be decided whether it merits study within 15 days of submission. It is therefore crucial to act quickly in order to obtain their support in the National Assembly. This could have a major impact on the consideration of our petition in addition to all the signatures collected this summer.

For this edition, we have chosen to talk about Annabelle Boucher.

The AQC makes it a priority to have the IBCLC profession recognized in Quebec. The presence of IBCLCs in the health network is an important step towards equitable access to essential specialized breastfeeding care for families who need it. Continued support for breastfeeding beyond initiation must be a priority for the province, which is in line with Santé Québec's recommendations for best breastfeeding practices.
