Dear Coalition Members and Supporters,

We are sharing an urgent update and call to action from our partners at the Perinatal Health Equity Initiative (PHEI) regarding a incident at Cohoes Fashions (owned by Burlington Stores, Inc.) this summer where a breastfeeding mother was shamed and denied a private space to feed her baby. (Our former President, and current NJ State Breastfeeding Coordinator, Ellen Maughan, is quoted in this article about the incident.)

While providing a private space is not always legally required, respect for the law and the individual is mandatory. We remind all NJ businesses and the public of the clear protections in place for nursing families:

“Breastfeeding is permitted anywhere in any place of public accommodation in New Jersey wherein you are otherwise permitted to be.” [N.J.S.A. 26:4B-4] (Source: NJ Law Against Discrimination)

PHEI has patiently sought accountability from the corporation but has received silence. Consequently, they are organizing a peaceful Nurse-In to affirm the dignity and rights of this mother and all nursing parents.

We encourage our network to show up and stand in solidarity. You do not need to be lactating to join- all supporters are welcome.

Event Details: 🗓️ Date: Saturday, November 22, 2025 ⏰ Time: 11:00 AM – 12:00 PM 📍 Location: Cohoes Fashions at The Mills at Jersey Gardens (651 Kapkowski Rd, Elizabeth, NJ)
