[Pharmwaste] Is a national medicine collection day being plannedfor 9/25/...

It would have been really, really, really nice if DEA would have talked to anyone working with these programs and worked with the November 13 date.  Sept leaves very little time for planning. I think it was irresponsible on their part, especially given that some of their local offices were blindsided by it and were already working with partners on the 13th date.  Oh well, I had nothing else to do for the next 2 months.  Good for all of you that can stick with the November date!

As below, Here in Collier County, Florida, "Operation Medicine Cabinet". will also collaborate with American Medicine Chest Challenge on November 13, 2010.
We would also be happy to send out any information to those who need a simple, reproducible model to follow.  We work hand in hand with law enforcement.

This date and program has been in the works for several months as a nationally coordinated effort. We have been doing take back programs here in Collier County and throughout the State and Nation for several years.

The date we're working with is Nov. 13th, promoted by The Partnership
for a Drug-Free New Jersey, and called the American Medicine Chest
Challenge.  http://www.drugfreenj.org/amcc/
Our Putnam County NY Solid Waste Program has collaborated in the past
with our drug and alcohol people and our youth bureau, and this
Challenge comes from that side of the issue.  We are planning collection
events on that date.

Greetings,

We've heard rumblings about -- but haven't been able to confirm -- Sept.
