Safe Haven Baby Box
Safe and Legal Option
A Baby Box is a safety device provided for under Arkansas’s Safe Haven Law which legally permits a parent in crisis to safely, securely, and anonymously surrender their newborn. A Baby Box is installed in an exterior wall of a designated fire station or hospital. It has an exterior door that automatically locks upon placement of a newborn inside the Baby Box, and an interior door which allows a staff member to secure the surrendered baby.
