Learn resources for safe drug disposal and return.

When it comes to safely disposing of medications we no longer need it starts with each and every one of us. We all play a role in keeping our families, environment, and community free from the dangers of medications ending up in the wrong place or in the wrong hands. When we need to take medication, we also want to do so safely for our health.

And, if you look online for health information and are tired of wondering what information you can trust, we can help.

Please join us for this program designed with you and a healthier community in mind!
