The Safely Surrendered Baby Law:
  • Permits the parent(s) or surrendering person to safely and confidently surrender a baby within three days of birth
  • Provides a safe place for babies
  • Protects the parent(s) or surrendering person from prosecution for child abandonment
  • Does not require that names be given when the baby is surrendered
  • Allows the parent(s) or surrendering person at least 14 days to reclaim the baby
In california, no one ever has to abandon a baby again.
