State reports two girls turned over as Safe Haven babies
The Iowa Department of Health and Human Services says two baby girls were turned over to the state earlier this month under the Safe Haven program.
The Department says one girl was born on February 8th and the other on February 12th. Safe Haven allows parents who determine they cannot care for an infant to turn the baby over to the state with no questions asked. The baby has to be under 90 days old.
There were eight Safe Haven babies turned over in 2024. These two baby girls make a total of 76 infants turned over since the law went into effect more than two decades ago.
