'Safe exchange' sites across New Jersey are giving parents a safe way to get baby formula for their children.
FOX 29's Jennifer Joyce is talking to mom and Mayor of Lumberton Township, New Jersey, Gina LaPlaca, about how parents can access "safe exchange sites" to get baby formula for their children."Safe exchange" sites at local police departments are meant to safely facilitate person-to-person sales. Now, they are coming in handy as the formula shortage crisis looms.
First-time mom and Mayor of Lumberton Township, New Jersey, Gina LaPlaca, says there are many desperate parents combing through formula finder Facebook pages. LaPlaca is one of those parents, and she says she’s concerned about safety, so she came up with the idea to start formula exchange sites that are monitored by surveillance cameras.
LaPlaca recited some online comments she's seen on Facebook, saying, "Does anybody have formula? Where can you meet me? I'll come to your house."
