Saturday is National Drug Take Back Day

The Greenwich Police Department and the Greenwich Prevention Council, “Greenwich Together,” are participating in the National Drug Take Back Day on Saturday, October 23.

There will be a table in the lobby from 10:00am to 2:00pm for collection.

Residents are encouraged to bring their unused or unwanted prescription or over-the-counter medicines (including pet medicines) for proper disposal.

No questions asked!

Residents do not need to complete forms or answer questions regarding the medicines they are dropping off and there is no cost.

Proper disposal of medicines through the drug take-back program allow you to protect your identity, prevent illicit or accidental consumption of medicines, and help protect our water and environment.

Drop off unused or expired drugs in the lobby of the Public Safety Complex located at 11 Bruce Place.

See DrugFreeCT.org there is information on the safe use, storage and disposal of prescription drugs. There are also a series of links to resources for treatment and recovery.
