Safe Haven Box Saves Baby From Infanticide
On Monday, December 2, the City of Lebanon Communications Center received an alarm from the Newborn Safety Incubator (Safe Haven Baby Box) which is located at their local fire station.
The Lebanon Police and Fire units responded to the Safe Haven Baby Box and located a female infant. The baby was immediately transported to Cincinnati Children’s Hospital.
“God is so good. I am so thankful for my colleagues on Lebanon City Council who supported this proposal to build a Safe Haven Baby Box, and then for Jean Schmidt working with me to empower these at the state level,” said Rep. Adam Mathews. “A little girl will live, and this life should be added to the legacy of Tom and Bonnie Ariss as they were key donors to build the box. To God be the Glory!”

The Safe Haven Baby Box in Lebanon was made possible through the legislation introduced by Rep. Mathews and Rep. Schmidt that was originally introduced in HB 109 and passed through the budget. Ohio Right to Life is proud to have advocated for this life-saving legislation and we look forward to pursuing new innovative policies in 2025.
