A safer home starts with a simple step!
This Saturday, October 24, is National Prescription Drug Take Back Day! Take a few minutes to clean out your medicine cabinet and safely dispose of unused, unwanted, or expired medications.
Proper disposal helps prevent accidental poisonings, reduces the risk of medication misuse, and keeps medications out of the wrong hands.
Local law enforcement agencies and prevention coalitions across Tennessee are making it easy to participate!
