Safe Haven Laws Fost Care

The safe haven law has an extensive and complex background. It was created in Texas in 1999 in order to combat an increasing number of infant fatalities due to abandonment

Under these laws, individuals can relinquish their child to a designated location, where the child will receive treatment and care. After the infant is provided with medical treatment, they will usually become a ward of the State and enter into the foster care established in order to help promote safe surrender laws. These organizations use a wide range of techniques in order to advertise the benefits of these laws.

The infant safe haven laws are responsible for saving the lives of thousands of children throughout the United States and providing these children with a hopeful and bright future.
