SATURDAY IS NATIONAL PRESCRIPTION DRUG TAKE BACK DAY

We all know that unused or expired prescription medications can present a serious threat to public health and safety as well as the environment. This Saturday, April 27, is National Prescription Drug Take Back Day. If you have any unwanted or unused prescription drugs, you are encouraged to bring them to any of the local community drop-off sites from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. A number of drop-off locations have been set up within the Seventh Senate District.
