Congratulations

She became an International Board Lactation Certified (IBCLC) in 2006 and worked as a breastfeeding counselor in the WIC office. She is passionate about supporting moms in their breastfeeding journey.

Her charismatic personality and a good sense of humor added to her experience and made her the right fit for the supervising position.

A SPECIAL THANK YOU

This Christmas holiday, Healthy Families Broward received generous donations from Plantation Police Department, McArthur High School, "JOLLY" and Broward Regional Health Planning Council staff in an effort to brighten the season for children within our program. As you can imagine with today’s economy, we see many families who are challenged with maintaining day-to-day necessities such as food, shelter, clothing and basic needs items. Our hope is to be able to provide these items for the children in order to help reduce the stressors that parents face.
