In recognizing there are times when an addict, their family or friends may desire to seek treatment for addiction, but lack the ability to destroy limited amounts of controlled substances in their possession, the Summit Police Department has implemented a drug amnesty program.  The purpose of the program is to give citizens the ability to turn in controlled substances and/or paraphernalia anonymously and without fear of prosecution, so that these items can be destroyed in a safe manner.

All that is required is for the person to bring the item(s) to the Summit Police Department and tell the responding officer that the item(s) are for the drug amnesty program.  It is recommended that you call ahead to make sure that an officer is available to take possession of the item(s).  You do not need to provide your name or any other personal information.
