Join The Center for Family Life and Recovery (CFLR) at our Spring Take Back Day event. This initiative, in collaboration with the Oneida County Sheriff’s Office, Oneida County Opioid Task Force, Oneida County Health Department, and Utica police departments, provides a convenient way for residents to “Take Back” unused or expired prescription medications, including sharps and pet medications. Free HOPE bags full of resources will also be given away. This drive-through event makes it easier for people to dispose of these medications safely and securely without having to leave their cars. This event is part of CFLR’s Oneida County Prevention Services program which aims to reduce the number of opioids available in our communities while also reducing the risk of misuse and abuse. Present at this event will be CFLR’s Narcan trainers as well as Deterra bags which are drug deactivation bags.
Location: 321 Main Street Utica, NY 13501
Date / Time: Saturday, April 26th from 10:00am to 2:00pm
