Cheswold Police Department /DEA Sponsoring National Take Back Day Sept. 27, 2014
Date Posted: Friday, March 6th, 201510:00 AM – 2:00 PM
On Saturday, September 27, 2014, from 10am to 2pm, DEA will coordinate a collaborative effort with state and local law enforcement agencies focused on removing potentially dangerous controlled substances from our nation’s medicine cabinets. A National Take-Back day will provide a unified opportunity for the public to surrender expired, unwanted, or unused pharmaceutical controlled substances and other medications to law enforcement officers for destruction. This one-day effort will bring national focus to the issue of pharmaceutical controlled substance abuse. The program also provides an opportunity for law enforcement, prevention, treatment and the business community to collaborate and establish a safe collection site for all Americans, regardless of where they reside.
The Cheswold Police Department will once again be participating in this endeavor and will be a collection site for this falls Take Back Day. Collections will be taken at the Cheswold Police Department on Sept. 27th from 10am till 2pm. You may drop off any and all medications to the police department on that day during those times. Please hold your medications until that day so that we have the proper equipment on hand to collect your pharmaceuticals. The police department does not have the controls or facilities at this time to take your pharmaceutical controlled substances on a daily basis and cannot collect them prior to or after the scheduled date and time. Thank you very much for your support and understanding in this matter.
Remember National Take Back Day is :
