National Take-Back Day

AHM Youth & Family Services’ Coalition for a Healthy & Empowered Community (AHM CHEC) in partnership with the Connecticut State Police is hosting National Take-Back Day on Saturday, October 28th from 10:00 AM to 2:00 PM at RHAM High School (85 Wall Street, Hebron). Medications should be in the original container with the name crossed off and please no sharps. The first 50 cars will receive a free SAFE Rx Locking Pill Bottle to keep medications safely stored; paid for by the Local Prevention Council (LPC) Grant. National Drug Take Back Day aims to provide a safe, convenient, and responsible means of disposing of prescription drugs and over-the-counter medications, while also educating the general public about the potential for abuse of medications.
