New Jersey Realtors®
HINJ President and Chief Executive Officer Dean J. Paranicas presented the 2019 Special Recognition Award to the New Jersey Realtors® at their headquarters during a Board of Directors meeting on Feb. 19.
The Realtors and HINJ collaborated on this year’s ‘Safe Home, Safe Sale’ Campaign, an initiative of the Realtors to prevent the diversion of prescription medicines from houses on the market, which was funded by a grant that HINJ received from PhRMA.
The campaign – “Safe Home, Safe Sale” – includes an educational brochure for Realtors to share with their clients, social media promotion leading viewers to a website with resources for Realtors and homeowners, and a curriculum for Realtors that will be offered as part of their required continuing education.
For disposing of unused medicines that are no longer needed, the campaign will point realtors, home sellers and the public to the American Medicine Chest website. It provides the locations of drop-off sites in New Jersey where people can safely and anonymously dispose of unused and expired medications.
