Safe Haven Day


In early April we celebrated Save Abandoned Babies Day as did much of the rest of the country. We had close to 20 cities in Illinois who were part of the effort. I was lucky enough to be part of the efforts in Waukegan. Thanks to everyone involved and the coverage of it in the media, I was told four days after the event, an overwhelmed mother in Waukegan relinquished her newborn child to a Safe Haven. This year we had more to celebrate as now all 50 states have Safe Haven Laws.
