Free Resources to Keep Youth Safe

   
Medication Lock Boxes and Bags: We have lockable storage boxes in two sizes and lockable zipper bag that some community members use when traveling. Keeping prescription drugs and THC containing oils, edibles and liquids locked up keeps everyone in your house safe! Storage containers are available at the Stoughton Area Senior Center. Can’t find one or can’t get to our location when they’re open? Email us at info@stoughtonwellness.org  and we’ll arrange a more convenient pick-up location and time.
   
Drug disposal: We offer two drug disposal options: Deterra Kits and mailing envelopes. Deterra kits come in two sizes and allow you to safely discard prescription medications in your garbage without the medications entering the water system. Mailing envelopes allow you to simply mail unneeded medications to a disposal location where they will be incinerated. Kits and envelopes are available at the Stoughton Police Department, the Stoughton Area Senior Center and at some area pharmacies. Can’t find one or can’t get to our locations when they’re open? Email us at info@stoughtonwellness.org and we’ll arrange a more convenient pick-up location and time.
   

Medication Drop Boxes: It is important to do your part to keep prescription drug medications out of your homes; out of our water; out of the reach of children! Properly dispose of your unused, unwanted or expired medication! The Stoughton Police Department has a Drug Drop Box located at 321 S 4th St. It is free, safe, anonymous and available 24/7! 

What can you put in the Drug Drop Box?

  • Prescription medications
  • Medication samples
  • Over-the-counter medications
  •  Inhalers
  • Vape Devices
     
   
Refrigerator Locks: A recent survey of Stoughton High School Students showed that 50.2% of Stoughton youth have tried alcohol before the age of 18, and at least 25% are drinking alcohol on a regular basis. Current research indicates that youth under the age of 15 years who begin using alcohol or drugs are up to six times more likely to have future addiction issues, compared to those who don't. This is due to impact that these foreign substances have on the developing adolescent brain chemistry. Focus groups with 9th through 12th graders showed that the most common place for youth to get alcohol is from their own, or the homes of friends. In addition, a recent survey of adults in Stoughton showed that over 73.% believe that youth sneak alcohol from homes. In an effort to prevent underage drinking, the Stoughton Wellness Coalition is giving away refrigerator locks to anyone in the community who would like one. If you or someone you know has a beer or wine fridge, especially if it's in the garage or basement, contact us to get your free lock, and help to keep all our kids safe.
   
Tamper Tape: Tamper resistant tape can be used to seal bottles of alcohol or other items to prevent access in your home. Families may use tamper tape when they are going out of town or when they are hosting a sleepover or teen gathering. Stoughton Wellness will provide you with 4 strips of tamper tape upon request. Email us at info@stoughtonwellness.org and we’ll arrange a pick-up location and time. 
   

 

Resources for Community Organizations & Businesses

   
ID Scanners: Organizations that are having an event that includes alcohol service can borrow a portable ID scanner form Stoughton Wellness. These scanners read driver’s licenses, passports, or other IDs to verify that customers are over 21. Please contact us at info@stoughtonwellness.org to arrange to borrow a scanner.
   
Hidden in Plain Sight Demonstration: Stoughton Wellness staff can come to your event, meeting or business and provide you with a hands-on Hidden in Plain Sight experience. Innocent looking common items like water bottles and soda cans that contain a “stash” compartment are widely available. Do you know what to look for? Please contact us at info@stoughtonwellness.org to arrange a demonstration.
 
Message Guide for Providers: Anyone who is in regular contact with teenagers has an opportunity to talk to them about substance use. Health care providers including clinics, dental offices, employers and youth-serving organizations will benefit from this brief (30-60 minute) training on framing conversations with youth about avoiding substance use. Please contact us at info@stoughtonwellness.org to arrange a training.
 
Narcan Training: Learn the signs of overdose and how to naloxone to save a life. Participants receive a two-dose Narcan administration kit. Virtual or in-person training available. Please contact us at info@stoughtonwellness.org to arrange a training.
