I am a Registered Dietitian who has recently become a board certified Lactation Consultant. I have been working for WIC for 16 years and have been the State Breastfeeding Coordinator for the past three years. Both the Breastfeeding Coordinators (there is one for each of the eight regions and three primary care centers) and Peer Counselors (located throughout the state) have completed the four modules of the SCDHEC WIC Breastfeeding Counselor Training Program. I oversee the training and breastfeeding promotion and support for the WIC program in South Carolina.
