South Carolina is experiencing an evolving opioid crisis which is affecting everyone, including seniors. Seniors are unique in that while they are often over-prescribed, and in some cases abusing opioids, they are also frequently in possession of unused prescription medication. This grant program is part of our effort to promote drug take back as a safe way to dispose of unused prescription medication. The Sheriff’s Office is a recipient of a Prescription Drug Take Back Box courtesy of the State of South Carolina's Lieutenant Governor’s Office.
