National Drug Take Back Day Event scheduled for April 30th
The Lawrence County Substance Abuse Coalition (LCSAC), in partnership with the Lawrence County Health Department and Lawrence County Sheriff’s Department, will host a Drug Take Back event on Saturday, April 30 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at WLX Country Café located at 1212 North Locust Ave. in Lawrenceburg as part of National Prescription Drug Take Back Day.
We will be taking unused or expired prescription, over-the-counter, and/or veterinary medications to properly dispose of them. No liquids or syringes will be accepted. The event is free, anonymous, and no questions will be asked.
“This is a chance for everyone to contribute, and become part of the solution to our state’s prescription drug abuse epidemic that has hurt so many of our loved ones, friends, and neighbors,” said E. Douglas Varney, Commissioner for the Tennessee Department of Mental Health and Substance Abuse Services. “Every person in our state has been touched by this epidemic, in one form or another. We have lost too many to this disease of addiction. If you have unused medications, do your part and join in Take-Back Day. Ask others to do the same.”
“In addition to being a health hazard, throwing medication away with household garbage or flushing it is harmful to our environment,” said Lori Munkeboe, director of the TDEC’s Office of Sustainable Practices. “We hope National Prescription Drug Take-Back Day will create awareness of the viable disposal options across the state to keep drugs out of our water and off the streets.”
Take These Steps to Remove Prescription Drugs From Your Home or Office:
• Check for unused prescriptions in medicine cabinets, bathroom, closets, bedside tables and kitchen drawers, under the sink, and in closets, purses, handbags, and containers.
• Remove all labeling and packaging on bottles and containers before disposing to ensure the protection of your privacy and personal information.
“Prescription drug abuse is a community problem, and we must fix the problem as a community,” said Sissy Garner, chair of LCSAC Board of Directors. “LCSAC is excited to be a part of this great event with the hope that we can bring greater awareness to Lawrence County’s crippling prescription drug dilemma and get that much closer to a solution.”
Residents are encouraged to come out on April 30, enjoy a free hotdog, and pick up a goodie bag as a token of appreciation for participating in this event. If you have any questions, please contact the Lawrence County Health Department at 931-762-9406.
If you or someone you care for is in need of substance use treatment, call the Tennessee REDLINE anytime at 1-800-889-9789 for help now. Resources are available across the state.
