Next to marijuana, the most common illegal drugs teens are using to get "high" are prescription medications from medicine cabinets. It is NOT SAFE for the environment to throw away or flush medications. That is why Impact Cedar Hill is joined by Walgreens-CHISD-Cedar Hill Police Dept. and the City of Cedar Hill who generously provides funds for our police officers to collect these medications. Walgreens provides the location and water. Our Cedar Hill Collegiate and High School students will be there as volunteers to meet and greet. if you need more information please contact Mr.Chavez...214-770-2444 Thank you for all your support!!!!
