On
April 29, 2017, the Wisconsin Department of Justice (DOJ) will
coordinate a Prescription Drug Take Back Initiative throughout Wisconsin. The
Prescription Drug Take-Back Day goal is to provide a safe, convenient, and
responsible means of disposal of prescription medications, while also educating
the general public about the potential for abuse of these medications. Unused
prescription medications in homes create a public health and safety concern,
because they can be accidentally ingested, stolen, misused, and abused.
In
coordination with the Brown County Drug Task Force and the WI Department of
Justice, the Village of Allouez will be accepting unused/unwanted prescriptions
and over the counter medications for proper disposal.
When:
Saturday April 29th 10:00A.M.-2:00P.M.
Where:
Allouez Village Hall1900 S. Libal St.
Green Bay, WI 54301
Please contact Directed Enforcement Officer Jason Vogel at (920)448-2800 Ext. 109 or by e-mail vogel_jp@co.brown.wi.us with any questions.
