Saturday Is Drug Take Back Day

Greene County residents are gearing up for the DEA’s National Prescription Drug Take Back Day, happening this Saturday from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. The event, hosted by the Greene County Sheriff’s Department in partnership with the Greene County Anti-Drug Coalition and the DEA, provides a safe and anonymous way to dispose of old, unwanted, or expired medications. Collection sites at South Greene High School and Walmart will accept medications, excluding syringes, sharps, and illicit drugs. Liquid products should remain sealed in their original containers to prevent leakage.
