Safe Haven Baby Boxes began in 2016 to address the nation’s infant abandonment crisis, making great strides in giving a voice to this once silent epidemic.
As an infant that was abandoned back in 1973, Monica Kelsey grew up with a vision to embrace, understand, and perfect the Safe Haven Laws, all while helping mothers and children in crisis. With these tasks in mind, she left her career as a firefighter/medic to create the Safe Haven Baby Box Organization.
