Northwell BFREE Lactation Support Groups

Northwell's BFREE program offers in-person and virtual lactation support groups facilitated by trained staff in English and Spanish, while many Northwell hospitals host regular groups free of charge. Staten Island University Hospital also documents postpartum and tele-lactation services. The system pages do not identify a current Staten Island group schedule, insurance rule, or referral requirement, so call the hospital lactation team first.

Cost: Many hospital groups are free; confirm the Staten Island offering and any clinical visit charges
