Last week Students for Life Action announced its agenda for 2026 and its nationwide 47 -day lobby day to push it through. You can read their press release and schedule here .

So much for Anonymity! Mrs Kelsey Visits Anonymous Baby Box Mothers or I Know Something That You Don’t Know!
It’s no secret that Monica Kelsey, CEO/Founder of Safe Haven Baby Boxes, knows the identity of some of the “anonymous” mothers manipulated into dropping their babies into her money-maker boxes. She’s mentioned publicly that they contact her post-boxing to check on the welfare of their babies and later just to shoot the chat.

Ohio: Union Township Officials Unhappy with SHBB Inc
This time around, Hicks published documented evidence of a rift between Mrs. Kesley and township trustees over who controls baby box-case publicity….The bigger issue here is who is the gatekeeper? Who can control not only the drop-off announcement but also other aspects of the boxes: local and location procedures, signage, orange bag information, and other demands that Mrs Kelsey makes. And why in the world does she and her company hold the right to collect and maintain secret personal information, via her” registry” or other means, about the babies left in her boxes or their parents
NAM/NAAM Day 29. Exploitation. Why We Fight Safe Haven Baby Boxes
The objectification and commodification of Boxed Babies is one of our numerous objections (and here) to baby boxes. Critically, objectification and commodification are key elements SHBB Inc survival–finances. The corporation over the last 8+ years, has posted dozens of happy (and not so happy) looking babies and toddlers and their adoptive parents to encourage “desperate mothers” to use its services, and more importantly, to normalize baby boxing to the public. In turn, the photo-ops, press conferences, banquets, and special interest stories fill their coffers and feed the adoption industry’s bloody maw.
NAM/NAAM Day 18: Was Safe Haven Baby Boxes Inc’s Monica Kelsey Dangerously Discarded?
For a long time I have questioned some of the origin story of Monical Kelsey, the CEO/founder of SHBB Inc. I believe that much of it is true as told, but there is some artful dodging at the same time. One thing that has really bothered me for years is her narrative that she was abandoned at the hospital by her mother 2 hours after birth .

A couple of weeks ago, I interviewed with Roni Dori from Calcalist, the largest business publication in Israel, regarding adoptee opposition to Safe Haven Baby Boxes.

NAM/NAAM Day 17, 2025. The Baby Box Questions that Safe Haven Baby Box Inc CEO Monica Kelsey Ran Away from in Hamilton, Ohio
Below is the list of questions political watchdog Chris Hicks attempted to ask SHBB Inc CEO/Founder Monica Kelsey at last week’s baby box opening in Hamilton, Ohio. Instead of being professional and answering them or politely declining, she called for Security and ran away. Each question is reasonable and something that a member of any legislature might ask–and in some cases has asked. Did she run out of the hearing room? Call for the state patrol?
NAM/NAAM Day 16. Weirdo Facebook Convo about Adoption and Safe Haven Practices. Adopt a Fetus
The Adoption-Safe Haven Baby Box thread caught my eye, bringing a new insanity to Safe Haven discourse. ” Adoption. Pro-Life will often say that there is no difference between a human life that is born and a life that is unborn. So if those that are born can be adopted, let the unborn be adopted as well.”
