Medication Take-Backs
 

The Coalition collaborates with area Police Departments, municipalities and the Drug Enforcement Administration to provide numerous Medication Take-Back events each year.  Residents take advantage of these opportunities to properly dispose of expired or unwanted medications, making their homes safer while protecting the enviroment. Over 5,000 pounds of prescription medication have been collected from Rockwood community homes during the past two years. 

Take-Backs that occurred on October 29th were a huge success.  Read about them here.

On Saturday, April 28th 2012, we sponsored six take-back events. Residents brought in over 2,500 pounds of unused drugs.  Many locations doubled the amount of drugs they brought in, making this event one of the most successful we have had so far!

                          

Eureka Police Department has a 24/7 medication drop box located in their lobby.  This service is available for any resident of any area municipality.  Feel free to use this safe, secure and responsible method of disposing of your excess medications if one of our take-back events is not convenient for you.
