Please share these helpful resources, which I hope provide a user-friendly way to communicate very important information about (1) where to find lactation pods in the downtown Houston area; and (2) laws and regulations related to lactation. Thanks to Emery Richards for providing her employment law expertise, to the Houston Bar Association Gender Fairness Committee’s Pods PR team for their input and assistance with the flyer design, and to the HBA staff for their assistance with they flyers. Thanks also the Harris County Law Library for providing the template for the Lactation Pod flyer and for helping us to promote all of this important information. It was fun to design the flyers, and I hope people find them useful! Let me know if you need pdfs of any of these. #lawmoms #lawyermoms #lactation #lactationlaw #lactationpods #pregnantworkersfairnessact #pumpact
