There is a life-saving option for you and your baby.
Every state has a "safe haven" law. Although they vary a bit from state to state, these laws make it possible for you to leave your unharmed newborn in a safe place – no questions asked.
In Wisconsin, a parent can safely surrender their unharmed newborn up to 72 hours old with any firefighter, police officer, EMT or hospital employee without fear of prosecution.
The founding purpose, and continuing mission, of Safe Place for Newborns is to save the lives of newborns in danger of abandonment, and to help preserve the health and future of their mothers.
