In a significant move towards creating a more inclusive and supportive environment, Morehouse has proudly opened its first Lactation Station, located in the break room of Gloster Hall. This new space aims to provide a private, comfortable, and secure area for nursing mothers who work at or visit college.
The Lactation Station is part of Morehouse’s ongoing commitment to meet the needs of its diverse community, particularly catering to working parents and caregivers. Designed in collaboration with healthcare partners, this initiative addresses a crucial need by ensuring that new mothers have a dedicated space to breastfeed or pump with dignity and convenience.
Equipped with all the essentials for comfort and ease, the Lactation Station features a private, lockable pod designed for safety and tranquility. This thoughtful addition reflects Morehouse’s recognition that supporting family life is integral to fostering a thriving academic and professional atmosphere.
Morehouse understands that its commitment to a supportive campus involves meeting the unique needs of everyone who steps through its doors. The Lactation Station is a testament to the college’s dedication to creating a space where family life and professional excellence can coexist harmoniously.
Nursing mothers visiting or working at Morehouse are encouraged to utilize this new resource, which underscores the college’s commitment to inclusivity and support. The Morehouse community is invited to share this information with anyone who may benefit from the Lactation Station.
