The purpose of this study was to address the complex issues of poor breastfeeding outcomes that have existed for years with Black women in rural Alabama and Mississippi. By ascertaining the optimal components of a breastfeeding program design, necessary steps can be taken for improvement with breastfeeding outcomes. These complex issues were determined to be multi-disciplinary, muti-factoral, and multi-sectoral. Maternal Child Health experts provided a guiding structure that would outline the components. A Delphi study was conducted which asked questions regarding identification of components needed within communities. There was a total of two surveys given in this Delphi study. Twenty-three Maternal Child Health experts participated in the first survey and twenty Maternal Child Health experts participated in the second study. Maternal Child Health experts determined that Black women in rural Alabama and Mississippi need community support from lay professionals such as Doulas, Midwives, and Lactation professionals in the prenatal and postpartum periods. Panelists also determined access to informal community meetings led by a peer were necessary. Attitudes of the hospital postpartum care staff about underserved populations and disparity along with knowledge and attitudes of community health workers have about breastfeeding should be perceived as normal. In other words, it should be acknowledged that this population of women face challenges that hinder breastfeeding outcomes. Availability of prenatal breastfeeding classes taught by local trained facilitators in community facilities such as churches, mosques, synagogues, and community centers were important for increasing breastfeeding outcomes. Panelists deemed achieving the training expected by the Baby Friendly Hospital Initiative (BFHI) even if the facility is not moving toward designation and offering periodic (monthly) lactation specific conferences or webinars for staff would be a vital component. Money from the state level and from the Federal Government was identified as being an essential component.Limitations for the study and findings are discussed, and recommendations for the future research around breastfeeding are offered.
