Two New Rx Drop Box Locations

OCSAPC has partnered with the Triadelphia Police Department under the leadership of Mayor Ken Murphy & Sargent Jim Kendle and the Bethlehem Police Department with the support of Chief Dan Griffin and Mayor Garrett Daniels.  The drop boxes are available to deposit unused/expired prescriptions during police department office hours.  The Wheeling Police Department's box is still open 24/7.  Chief Daniel Griffin reported due to many seniors in his area the boxes make proper disposal more convenient.  Both communities were very gracious and supportive when approached to house and secure the boxes.
