Minneapolis, MN
United States

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.
