The Healthy Beginnings Partnership of Greater Prince William and the Alexandria Breastfeeding Promotion Committee are celebrating a new law supporting breastfeeding with a fun networking event. The NOVA Breastfeeding Partners Happy Hour will be held on Tuesday, April 7 from 4:30-6:30 p.m. at Fiona’s Irish Pub in Alexandria.

On March 9, Gov. Terry McAuliffe signed a bill that passed unanimously in both the House and Senate that allows women to legally breastfeed in public places. Virginia is now the 49th state to pass such legislation. Previously, state law only protected breastfeeding in pubic on property owned, leased or controlled by the Commonwealth of Virginia.
