Welcome to the Fentanyl Free Communities coalition. A dynamic collaboration between two entities: The Fentanyl Free Communities Foundation (FFCF), a 501c3 organization and The Fentanyl Free Communities (FFC) policy board. This coalition champions the critical causes of education, awareness and advocacy in the battle against fentanyl. 

Our board members are passionately involved in community outreach and educational initiatives, striving to create informed and safe fentanyl-free communities.

Meanwhile, the FFC coalition excels in shaping policy at both state and federal levels, driving legislative actions to combat the fentanyl epidemic. 

Together, we work in tandem to prevent fentanyl poisoning, each focusing on our unique strengths while sharing a common mission to safeguard our communities.

Education awareness
Public policy

To address the fentanyl crisis, Fentanyl Free Communities focuses on three crucial pillars: education, awareness, and public policy. Through education, we offer comprehensive information about the dangers of fentanyl, enabling individuals to make informed choices.

By raising awareness through campaigns and media channels, we aim to enhance understanding and diminish stigma. Moreover, our active involvement in public policy empowers us to advocate for more stringent regulations, enhanced treatment access, and comprehensive harm reduction strategies. 

Through these collective endeavors, our goal is to foster fentanyl-free communities and ensure a healthier, safer future for everyone.
