💙 Every call can change a life. 💙
A hospital social worker recently contacted our 24/7 confidential NSHA hotline on behalf of a mother who had just delivered her baby boy and was considering a Safe Haven surrender. Wanting to ensure the mother was fully informed and supported, the social worker reached out to our team for guidance.
With the support of our trained hotline responder, we were able to connect directly with the mother and compassionately walk her through all of her options—parenting, temporary placement, adoption, and Safe Haven surrender. During this conversation, the mother shared that she wanted to maintain a connection with her baby but didn’t realize adoption could make that possible. Learning that adoption can offer a loving family and preserve a meaningful connection to her child was empowering.
With this knowledge and support, the mother chose an adoption plan—ensuring her son’s safety, stability, and a lifelong connection to his story.
This is the power of informed, compassionate support in a moment of crisis.
Thanks to our mission partners and donors, NSHA’s hotline team is able to be there when it matters most—answering the call, providing crisis intervention, and supporting parents with dignity and care. We are grateful that both mother and baby are safe, supported, and moving forward with hope.
