Henry County will soon be the home of Georgia’s first Safe Haven Baby Box, a new option for parents in crisis to safely and anonymously surrender a newborn.

Located at Henry County Fire Station 6 at 30 Fairview Road in Ellenwood, the climate-controlled box provides a secure place for a newborn while immediately alerting first responders. The initiative gives parents another safe alternative while helping protect some of the most vulnerable members of our community.

The Safe Haven Baby Box will be fully operational Friday, August 28, following a 9:30 a.m. blessing ceremony.
