The Alamo Area Council of Governments
(AACOG), in partnership with the City of
Pleasanton, is hosting a medication take back
event for the residents in the Atascosa
County area.
This event is open to the public at large and is free of charge.
Participants are encouraged to bring all their old medications and
to either place all their medication in a clear bag or remove labels
from medication bottles if they contain personal information. This
event will be held on Tuesday, August 11th at the Pleasanton Civic
Center from 8am – 1pm (CST).
AACOG staff will be set up outside the Pleasanton Civic Center
and participants can simply drive by and drop off medication from
the safety of their cars. Social distancing practices will be enforced,
and a law enforcement officer will be present. Free giveaways will
be provided to all participants. This event is made possible by
funding from a USDA grant. Free transportation is available from
AACOG by calling 8 6 6 - 8 8 9 - 7 4 3 3.
