Town Of Richmond: Drug Take-Back Event - October 23, 2021

Press release from the Town of Richmond:

October 1, 2021

Drug Take-Back Day is October 23, 2021:

Since 2010, these collaborative events have resulted in the collection of over 1.3 million pounds of pharmaceutical waste and narcotics during 20 Take Back events.  In Richmond alone, we have collected unwanted/surrendered prescriptions for opiates and Fentanyl.  This nationwide effort has undoubtedly spared some families the tragedy of experimental drug use and/or overdose by a loved one or visitor to their home.
