nursing mothers

The University of Alabama in Huntsville provides lactation rooms to support nursing mothers returning to work, school, or campus. Each room offers a clean, secure, and private space for women who need to express breast milk during their time on campus. All of the rooms are equipped with a table, chair, and lock from the inside.

See below for a list of nursing mother's room locations and what is available in each of the rooms.
