VSAAC Receives Valley United Way Special Needs Funding
BHcare’s Greater Valley Substance Abuse Action Council (VSAAC) received funding from the Valley United Way for two of its community programs – “Take Back” and “Live to Tell”.
A medication disposal drop-off unit will be installed at the Ansonia police department for residents to dispose of unwanted medication as part of VSAAC’s Take Back program. VSAAC began a prescription Take Back pilot project in 2008 in the Valley community. The project resulted in the collection of over $12,000 of medications in one town alone. In the three years since, the Drug Enforcement Administration has implemented state-wide drug take back on a twice-yearly basis.
