Whether you are new to lactating and pumping or have previous experience, we encourage you to attend our small-group, expert-led monthly workshop. Developed for employees and learners, the workshop will guide you through various lactation topics and on-campus services, specifically for when you are ready to return to campus. If you are affiliated with ZSFG, VA, Benioff Children's Oakland, UCSF Fresno, or another UCSF affiliated hospital, you are also welcomed to join!
