The Broward County Courthouse will soon begin providing a private lactation room for nursing mothers.
On Monday, a formerly vacant room on the Broward courthouse's 12th floor will open for nursing litigants, attorneys and judges alike to feed their children as well as pump breast milk in total privacy. Broward's nursing mother's room — which has been repainted and refurbished with furniture donated by City Furniture — follows the recent creation of similar areas in the Miami-Dade and Palm Beach courthouses.
Hinshaw & Culbertson attorney Madeleine Mannello told the Daily Business Review the efforts to designate a room for this specific use began roughly a year ago.
