Ohio Safe Haven

 

Deerfield Township is proud to offer a Safe Haven Baby Box at Station 57, located at:

 

3435 W US Rt 22, Loveland, OH 45140

 

This box provides a compassionate and secure option for mothers in crisis who are unable to care for their newborns. Designed with innovative safety features and installed on the exterior walls of fire stations and hospitals, each box ensures the safe and anonymous surrender of infants.

 

How It Works:

  • The exterior door locks automatically when a newborn is placed inside.
  • An interior door allows medical personnel to promptly and securely retrieve the baby, ensuring immediate care and protection.

 

Why It Matters:

  • The Safe Haven Baby Box at Station 57 is the 14th Baby Box in the State of Ohio and the 323rd box in the United States.
  • As of March 2025, 55 infants have been safely surrendered in Safe Haven Baby Boxes.
