Pretty wild! All states give you at least 30 days to dump your baby, no strings attached. Some states give you 60 days!

I feel like more people should know about this! It seems like a highly under utilized ability.

    In the event that this situation arises, hopefully the mother knows someone is at the station. There are plenty of empty stations that are used by volunteer departments.

      Yes as a city dweller I take it for granted that my taxes pay for a professional fire-and-rescue service.

      Other Safe Haven locations are hospitals, which makes sense, and some police stations (although I can’t imagine a worse place to leave a baby!)
