Prescription Drug Take Back Program
On Saturday, September 27th from 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. the St. Joseph Police Department and the St. Joseph Youth Alliance will be conducting a prescription drug take back event at the East Hills Mall on the parking lot near Sears and Dillards.
This event is part of the national program sponsored by the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration.
It’s a free service to allows people to discard unwanted drugs, prescriptions and over the counter medicines, in a safe manner that doesn’t pollute the water supply, or allow them to fall into the wrong hands.
This is an excellent opportunity for citizens to safely dispose of unwanted or expired prescription drugs. The Police Department Mobile Command Post will be set up during the event.
