Empowering Families, One Feeding at a Time
The Gulf Coast Lactation Community Center is a nonprofit resource center dedicated to ensuring all families—regardless of income, insurance coverage, or background—have access to expert, compassionate support from pregnancy through postpartum. Located in Daphne, Alabama, the Center was created to fill a critical gap in care by offering accessible lactation services and education to families across the Gulf Coast. We are here to serve the families who need us most—any mother seeking breastfeeding help, regardless of income or insurance coverage. Whether you have no insurance, limited income, or a plan that doesn’t cover lactation care, you deserve access to expert, compassionate support-
and we’re here to provide it. We have services for everyone.
