About this resource
In Utah, birth parents have the option to anonymously surrender custody of their newborn without incurring any legal penalties. Any hospital in Utah that operates 24/7 is recognized as a Safe Haven where newborns can be safely left. The Department of Child and Family Services (DCFS) subsequently arranges for the child's immediate adoption.
Who can use this
- The newborn can be left at the hospital by the mother or an authorized individual acting on her behalf.
