Utah’s Department of Health and Human Services is urging pregnant women in distress to seek support through the state’s Safe Haven Law. This reminder comes after the recent arrest of an 18-year-old woman accused of killing her infant son. Under the Safe Haven Law, parents can legally relinquish their newborn up to 30 days old at any 24/7 hospital with no questions asked. The law aims to provide a compassionate approach and help parents who may be struggling with the duties of parenting. Once the child is surrendered, they will be placed under state guardianship and efforts will be made to find them a safe and loving permanent home. For parents with older babies who need assistance, crisis nurseries and resources are available. It is important for pregnant women in distress to be aware of the options and support available to them. Utah’s efforts in promoting the Safe Haven Law aim to prevent tragic outcomes and ensure all infants have the opportunity to thrive in safe environments.
