2024/25 Healthy Savannah REACH Breastfeeding Landscape Assessment - Employer Survey

In 2022 The Pump Act was passed to add additional rights and protections for nursing parents. As part of the ongoing work with the Healthy Savannah/YMCA REACH grant, we want to understand how much businesses throughout the county are aware of this new act, what changes and policies have been implemented, and what supports may be needed. Please take a few minutes to let us know if your business is aware of this new law and if so, what policies and changes have been made. This information will help us as we look for ways to support mothers who want to breastfeed and encourage a breastfeeding friendly community.
