Installation of Baby Box proposed to city council
An innovation to help improve an anguishing situation was in the spotlight at the meeting of the Rhinelander Common Council Monday, Jan. 26. Oneida County foster parents Jenna Toms and Nicole Ziolkowski feel passionately that a Safe Haven Baby Box should be installed at the Rhinelander Fire Department. In a presentation prefaced by Rhinelander interim fire chief Adam Johnson, they explained what a Safe Haven Baby Box is and the cost and procedure to bring one to Rhinelander.
