Red Oak & Ovilla Police Want Your Drugs! National Drug Take Back Day
National Drug Take-Back Program April 24
This Saturday local Police Departments want your drugs, no, it’s not a trap. By dropping off your expired or unused prescription drugs, you can prevent misuse or drug abuse. A majority of misused prescription drugs are obtained from family and friends, often from the home medicine cabinet.
Members of the Red Oak Police Department will be serving our community during the drug take-back program which is happening on Saturday (4/24/2021) from 9:00 AM to 1:00 PM at the Red Oak Police Department. You will be able to drive up to the assigned personnel in front of the Red Oak Police Department during the specified time frame and drop off the applicable prescriptions without having to exit your vehicle.
The 20th National Prescription Drug Take Back day will be Saturday from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.
The Chautauqua County Sheriff’s Office, community partners and the Drug Enforcement Administration will provide the public with an opportunity to prevent medication abuse and theft by clearing out their homes of potentially dangerous expired, unused and unwanted prescription drugs. The event is to raise awareness and help community members dispose of unused or expired prescriptions at locations all across the county, free, anonymously and with no questions asked.
“Very often, unused prescription drugs find their way into the wrong hands that can result in tragedy. National Take Back Day provides hundreds of people the opportunity to clean out their medicine cabinets and dispose of prescriptions in a safe and anonymous manner” said Kelley Potter, HOPE Chautauqua DFC project director/coalition coordinator.
