Mama’s Mobile Milk TM arose out of a disparate real-life need from within the Detroit community to counter the detrimental, long-lasting effects of separating infants from breastfeeding parent due to NICU hospitalization, temporary foster care, and custodial issues. COVID-19 has magnified the many systemic issues plaguing some of the most vulnerable of situations and families, including but not limited to fragile infants in need of their own mother's milk.
To meet the need and find a community-driven solution, we are launching a human-milk delivery program to address the maternal/infant separation that many of the families in our community experience. Mama’s Mobile Milk TM specifically addresses the community approach necessary to ensure that IF maternal/infant separation occurs, a mother's own human-milk is still accessible for her infant, reducing the barriers that may exist preventing her from the ability to do so.
