In a heartwarming display of community support, the Lawrenceburg Fire Department received a Safe Haven Baby Box on Wednesday, made possible through generous local donations. This innovative box provides a safe and anonymous option for mothers facing crisis situations to surrender their babies. In accordance with Tennessee law, mothers have the legal right to do so within 15 days of the child’s birth.
The Safe Haven Baby Box will now be securely installed at the fire department, where it will be under constant monitoring to ensure the well-being of any infants left inside. This initiative serves as a beacon of hope and compassion for those in need, offering a lifeline to both mothers and their babies during difficult times.
