We believed from the beginning if we saved one life all of our efforts would be worthwhile. That was
388
precious newborns ago who are now living with their forever families --
317
mothers who choose to remain anonymous and place their newborn safely in the arms of a staff member at a Safe Haven facility; and,
71
mothers, their anonymity not a concern, choose to place their baby directly with a private adoption agency.
A Safe Haven for Newborns is dedicated to eliminating the ultimate in infant abuse, abandonment, through education, prevention, direct assistance and grass roots community involvement.
As the safety net, Safe Haven is possibly the last resort for a pregnant young woman with her newborn at her moment of crisis, very often facing life and death issues. Two lives saved -- the precious newborn and the mother.
The
lifeline
of our organization is our statewide confidential, 24/7 multilingual, referral helpline. We assist them as they make their decision in the best interest of their baby and themselves. Whether with counseling, parenting, health related issues, homelessness, adoption or confidentially placing their newborn with at a Safe Haven for Newborns facility.
All the services offered are at
no charge
to the expectant mother.
