Breastfeeding Champion Awards
2026 BREASTFEEDING CHAMPION AWARDS
Nominations are now open for the Annual COBA Breastfeeding Champions Awards, which celebrate individuals and spaces that go above and beyond to empower breastfeeding mothers and their families. We will honor extraordinary recipients with the Employer Award and Legislator Award.
The Employer Award recognizes an employer or company that has demonstrated exceptional commitment to creating a welcoming, accessible and supportive environment for breastfeeding mothers.
The Legislator Award honors a legislator who has championed breastfeeding-friendly policies, advanced public health initiatives, and inspired change through advocacy and legislative work.
Through these awards, COBA aims to shine a spotlight on those who lead the charge in removing barriers to ensure that every family has the support they need on their breastfeeding journey.
Nominate an employer or legislator TODAY! Nomination forms are due by February 14 with the awards presented at the state capitol during our annual Bagels for Breastfeeding event in March.
