Asian, Southeast Asian, Pacific Islander (ASAP!) Breastfeeding Taskforce
Alameda County’s Asian, Southeast Asian, Pacific Islander (ASAP!) Breastfeeding Taskforce recognizes the powerful influence of culturally appropriate, positive images and language appropriate educational messages in helping Alameda County families reach their nursing and infant feeding goals.
ASAP!’s Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander (AANHPI) Social Media Toolkit provides culturally appropriate lactation educational messages for AANHPI families for social media use.
The toolkit contains ready-made images for Instagram with positive photos depicting AANHPIs nursing and pumping. There are six different educational messages regarding nursing and human milk feeding.
Messages and captions are translated into 11 different AANHPI languages: Chinese (both traditional and simplified), Farsi, Hindi, Hmong, Japanese, Korean, Native Hawaiian, Samoan, Tagalog, and Vietnamese.
