2025 Theme: A World of Support: Creating Breastfeeding-Friendly Workplaces Everywhere

The theme for Workplace Lactation Week 2025 is “A World of Support: Creating Breastfeeding-Friendly Workplaces Everywhere.” This theme emphasizes support in any work environment a parent occupies, meeting them where they are—whether they work in an office, a factory, remotely, in the field, or are traveling abroad. In the United States, a robust framework of federal, state, and local lactation laws now exists to guide organizations and truly support new parents. Key among these are the federal PUMP (Providing Urgent Maternal Protections) Act and the Pregnant Workers Fairness Act (PWFA), all aimed at enhancing support and ensuring that working and pumping parents have the necessary protections and accommodations to thrive.
