Lactation Stations
Purpose
The University of New Mexico wants to support those students, staff, faculty, and their partners/spouses who chose to continue chest/breastfeeding their children after they return to school or work. The Chest/Breastfeeding Support Program includes lactation rooms on campus - some of which are equipped with hospital-grade pumps - links to lactation resources, and facilitates communication between current, past, and future chest/breastfeeding parents on campus.
Lactation Stations
Lactation Stations are safe places around UNM campus for parents to pump or chest/breastfeed. You can see these locations by enabling them on map.unm.edu by checking the "Lactation Room" box in the "Resources & ADA category", or see them directly here here.
