KCPHD and Kittitas Valley Healthcare (KVH) worked together in getting the Accommodation for Breastfeeding Employees Policy implemented at KVH. This work was supported by the Local Strategies for Physical Activity and Nutrition (LSPAN) grant awarded to KCPHD by the Washington State Department of Health. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, about 70% of employed mothers with children less than 3 years old work full-time. Working outside the home is related to a shorter time breastfeeding. Federal and Washington State laws say certain employers must provide breastfeeding employees with breaks and space for expressing milk. In Kittitas County, some workplaces, like KVH, have increased support for breastfeeding parents.
