Our day and evening meetings are held at Christ Episcopal Church's meeting space, in what they call the "New Brick" meeting hall.
It's on 6800 Oakland Mills Road at the foot of Dobbin Road in Columbia; when you go in the driveway, follow it around past the churchyard and downhill to the parking lot in front of a large hall. That's "New Brick" - come through the doors on the right and you'll pass the stairs, restrooms will be in front of you, and the main room will be through the doors on your left.

Mommy and Me Cafe
Meets 4th Fridays at 10:00 am. at Sarah & Desmond’s Vegetarian Cafe, 3715 Old Columbia Pike, Ellicott City
(on-street parking available on Main Street or the free lot on Main Street beside the Post Office across from the Cafe)
Expectant mothers, mothers, children -- even grandmothers and aunties -- are all welcome. Meet and mingle with other breastfeeding families. In additional to the valuable mother-to-mother support, an accredited LLL Leader will be on hand for questions or one-on-one time at the cafe, and ready to share warm and respectful information about breastfeeding.
Inclement
Weather Policy:
If the roads are too bad for school buses, and therefore Howard County schools are closed, we'll cancel the morning meeting or Mommy & Me Cafe. If schools are delayed in their opening, we'll still have the morning meeting or Mommy & Me Cafe, but it may start somewhat later than usual (since the Leaders have to get there, too, and set up) -- please do come at 10 a.m. anyway. For an evening meeting, if the roads have been cleared and the meeting place is open, we'll still have the meeting. If bad weather develops during the day, especially if for instance the schools or the federal government close early, then we'll cancel the evening meeting.
How
to Help our Group
We're always on the lookout for volunteers, and we're experienced in making Group jobs mother-sized. Volunteers gain through the satisfaction of helping others, learning new skills and developing those they already have, teaching others new skills, affirming their values, and our child-friendly atmosphere. Some of our standard Group jobs are greeter, librarian, publicity coordinator, refreshments coordinator, hostess, and fundraising coordinator. Of course, certain jobs are already filled, and we often could use help with one-time tasks that aren't on this list. You can donate to the Group if you wish, not only money but also books for our lending library (ask us what we need), stamps and other office supplies, your home for additional meetings, etc. Please ask!
Becoming
a La Leche League Leader
We're eager to work with mothers applying to become a LLL Leader,
and we've got a plan in place to help you prepare. For more information,
please read this FAQ
on becoming an LLL Leader, then talk to one of the Leaders.
