A Kentucky infant was the first in the state to be dropped off at a “baby box” last week, following the passage of a state law permitting the anonymous surrender of newborns.
The Bowling Green box had been in operation for a little under two months before the first infant was received.“This baby is healthy. This baby is beautiful. This baby is perfect,” said Kelsey, who added that officials will now be searching for the child’s “forever home.” Silent alarms are triggered that alert staff inside that a baby has been placed inside the box, prompting staff to quickly bring the baby inside and provide it care.Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear signed a law in 2021 that permits the use of baby boxes for children less than 30 days old. The law requires boxes to be placed at police stations, fire departments or hospitals that are staffed 24/7.
