organizing SHARPS disposal

How Might Kansas Ensure Safe Syringe Disposal by Individuals in the Community?
 
The state legislature and individual communities may wish to more actively encourage individuals to safely dispose of used syringes and make it easier for them to do so. Many options for state and local action exist. They range from gathering data, to developing community collection site programs and education efforts, to creating partnerships with interested groups, to considering amending laws and regulations. All will help Kansas move toward the goal of "no syringes discarded in the trash or public locations."
