Supporting the children
Colorado made headlines when legislation stating employers must allow working mothers to breastfeed passed.
Sen. Dan Gibbs supported it, saying that it helps babies’ health, with so many working mothers in Summit County.
Summit Prevention Alliance is providing grants up to $500 for local businesses to help accommodate breastfeeding, by creating private rooms or providing refrigerators for milk. It’s not acceptable for bathroom stalls to be mothers’ only option.
Meanwhile, Lake Dillon Preschool made progress for children by completing its $115,000 playground, after fundraising for seven years. It provides fall zones that are bouncy, as well as safer fences.
