Too often patients are prescribed more prescription medication than they need. Since many are unaware of how to store or dispose of these dangerous pills, they can fall into the wrong hands.

Let’s prevent the opportunity for misuse before it starts.
If you are over your dose, join us in safely disposing unwanted medications. Make your home safer, one pill at a time.

"What progress, you ask, have I made? I have begun to be a friend to myself." - Hecato

No matter the situation, there is always help and there is always hope. Whether we share resources, encourage others to seek help, or simply are there for someone when they need us, we instill hope and can help others to reach out when they need it most.

May is Mental Health Awareness Month , and C5-Rural is raising awareness of the important role mental health plays in our lives. We are encouraging members of the community to take action toward protecting their mental health and overall well-being.
We live in a rapidly changing world that can be difficult to navigate. About half of Americans can remember a time when we were not constantly connected and it was easier to tune out the noise of the world, while the younger half of the population can’t imagine life without it.

This May, C5-Rural will focus our efforts on helping our community to
- Break the stigma and have honest conversations about mental health.
- Learn how modern life affects mental health.
- Find healthy ways to manage stress, difficult emotions, and challenging situations.
- Improve mental health for yourself, the ones you love, and our community.
It’s important to remember that working on your mental health takes time. Change won’t happen overnight. Instead, by focusing on small changes, you can move through the stressors of modern life and develop long term strategies to support yourself and others on an ongoing basis.
