Episode 91: Innovative solution helps nursing mothers locate resources - a podcast by AFLCMC

Megan Kane, a Mechanical Engineer with the Armament Directorate at Robins AFB, Georgia, led the effort to develop an app that locates suitable spaces for nursing mothers who need to pump breast milk on a regular basis.

The creation of lactation spaces either from converting existing rooms or the installation of “pods,” is one of many programs led by the Women’s Initiative Team which is part of the Department of the Air Force Barriers Analysis Working Group. Specifically, WIT is charged to identify barriers to women’s service that influence and impact women’s propensity to serve and advocate to eliminate those barriers through policy change.
