Turn in your unused or expired medications for safe disposal.
The Jefferson County Sheriff's Office will be joining law enforcement agencies nationwide to remove potentially dangerous controlled substances from our nation’s medicine cabinets. The DEA's National Take-Back Day provides an opportunity for the public to surrender expired, unwanted, or unused pharmaceutical controlled substances and other medications for destruction. These drugs are a potential source of supply for illegal use and an unacceptable risk to public health and safety.
Sheriff's representatives will be set up at two drop-off locations across the county.
Saturday, September 29
10 a.m. - 2 p.m.
Dakota Ridge High School, 13399 W. Coal Mine Ave., Littleton (west parking lot) Evergreen Fire Rescue, 1802 Bergen Parkway, Evergreen
