BABY SAFE HAVEN | AMT CHILDREN OF HOPE FOUNDATION

Safe Haven is a designated public place, such as a hospital, firehouse, EMS station or police precinct where a baby can be left, in a safe condition, so that it may be permanently cared for. The goal of Safe Haven is to accept an infant from a birth mother, get the infant medical care if needed, then put the infant in the adoption process.
