2023 Mental Health Walk in Laishley Park
On April 26, 2025, Drug Free Punta Gorda proudly participated in the National DEA Prescription Drug Take Back Day—and the results were outstanding. In just four hours, between 10 AM and 2 PM, we collected more than 157 pounds of expired, unneeded, and unused medications from our community! This event is a vital part of our mission to keep Punta Gorda safe and drug-free by providing a secure, convenient way to dispose of medications that might otherwise end up misused or harming the environment. Thanks to the incredible support of our residents and local partners, we continue to make significant strides in reducing the availability of prescription drugs for potential misuse. If you missed this event, don’t worry—Drug Free Punta Gorda is committed to offering more opportunities throughout the year to safely dispose of medications. Together, we are building a healthier, safer community!
