VIDEO: Prescription Drug Abuse in Rice County

The Rice County Chemical Health Coalition brings you this informational video.

Locally, the Rice County Chemical Health Coalition has been working with law enforcement on the Take it to the Box program, a year-round effort to collect unused prescription drugs and keep them from being misused, abused or being discarded in a way that negatively affects the environment.

The Northfield Safety Center has a drop-off box for prescription drugs.
