La Leche League is an international, nonprofit, nonsectarian organization dedicated to providing education, information, support, and encouragement to women who want to breastfeed.
A one year membership in LLL is $40.00. This includes a subscription to the bi-monthly magazine, New Beginnings, and a member discount in the LLL store. Membership may be paid at group meetings or through La Leche League International. If you join through your local group, a portion of your membership dues will be made available to that group to purchase materials, buy new library books, and help defray the cost of sending members to educational conferences.
