Family planning programs serve large numbers of women of childbearing, and thus breastfeeding, age. Although these programs appear to have a number of characteristics which would be useful for promoting and supporting breastfeeding, most family planning programs have done very little in this area. The Agency for International Development (A.I.D.) and the Institute for International Studies in Natural Family Planning are working to find ways to remove barriers to family planning breastfeeding promotion efforts. Such barriers include lack of or conflicting measures of program success and lack of information on the breastfeeding/fertility relationship. The Institute is developing guidelines to help family planning programs promote breastfeeding.
计划生育项目服务于大量育龄妇女，也就是哺乳期的妇女。尽管这些项目似乎具备一些有助于促进和支持母乳喂养的特点，但大多数计划生育项目在这方面做得很少。国际开发署（A.I.D.）和自然计划生育国际研究所在努力寻找方法，以消除阻碍计划生育母乳喂养推广工作的障碍。这些障碍包括缺乏衡量项目成功的标准或标准相互冲突，以及缺乏关于母乳喂养与生育关系的信息。该研究所正在制定指导方针，以帮助计划生育项目促进母乳喂养。
