2011 ILCA Scholarship Winners
Shown (from left to right), are Syreeta, a WIC Peer Counselor from Virginia, Kay Hoover, and Victoria, an IBCLC from Ukraine, winners of the Wilson-Clay/Hoover ILCA Conference Scholarship. Also shown (far right) is Joy Heads, a proud new ILCA Board member. The Wilson-Clay/Hoover Conference Scholarship was developed as a mentoring opportunity to assist new and aspiring LCs to attend the ILCA conference for the first time. Barbara and Kay hope that the exceptional international environment and the educational stimulation of the conference will inspire these new members of our profession to take some of that excitement back to their own practices.
