COUNCIL ADDRESSES ORDINANCE FOR BABY BOX GRANT

(Richmond, IN)--Richmond Common Council met Monday night and dealt with a grant for a baby box.  A baby box is just that – a box built into the wall of a public building that allows an adult to place an infant with no questions asked if the adult is unable to care for the infant.  The grant is for $15,000 and comes from the Wayne County Foundation.  The baby box would be located at the Richmond Fire Department.
