In
October 2002, the State of California launched a
new campaign aimed at informing the public of the
State's Safely Surrendered Baby law. The campaign,
entitled “No Shame, No Blame, No Names” is designed to raise awareness about the law and to let
parents who may be inclined to harm or abandon
their newborns know that there is a safe
alternative. The County of Los Angeles is
conducting its own public information campaign.
Sponsored by First 5 LA (formerly the Proposition
10 Commission) and the County of Los Angeles, this
campaign has been coordinated with the statewide
campaign and provides key information on the law
to women, their families and communities.
For
more information on the County of Los Angeles public
information campaign, contact Garrison Frost,
First 5 LA at 213-225-6455 or GFrost@first5.org.
The
County campaign includes English and Spanish
language posters, brochures, and wallet cards. In
addition, a transit ad campaign was conducted
Countywide in Summer 2003.
The campaign also includes the universal Safe
Surrender logo developed by the County of Los
Angeles in collaboration with the Children’s
Planning Council and the State Departments of
Social Services (DCSS).
