Fentanyl Free America Summit
Protecting the Nation from Synthetic Opioids
July 12-16, 2026 | Orlando, Florida
The Drug Enforcement Administration invites all of our law enforcement and regulatory partners to join us for the inaugural Fentanyl Free America Summit, held in conjunction with the 2026 CADCA Mid-Year Conference, July 12-16 in Orlando, Florida.
This Summit will bring together more than 3,000 CADCA attendees, along with hundreds of partners not only law enforcement, but also regulatory, public health, education, business, faith-based organizations, government, and families, for one purpose: to fight the most urgent drug threat our nation has ever faced – the fentanyl crisis.
Grounded by Fentanyl Free America’s Three Pillars – Protect, Prevent, and Support – the Summit will highlight national strategies to disrupt illicit fentanyl supply chains, strengthen prevention efforts, support families, and unify communities with a whole-of-nation response.
The Fentanyl Free America Summit will offer break-out sessions specifically designed for federal, state, local, and tribal law enforcement leaders and regulatory partners to advance Fentanyl Free America’s “Protect” pillar, which supports safeguarding communities through increased enforcement and stronger measures to prevent fentanyl production and distribution.
Sessions will focus on:
- Disrupting transnational fentanyl supply chains
- Targeting precursor chemical networks
- Strengthening intelligence sharing and interagency coordination
- Operational lessons learned from recent enforcement surges
This Summit will provide practical tools, strategic insight, and unified messaging to ensure we remain ahead of evolving threats.
In advance of the Summit, communities across the country will also participate in a coordinated, unifying "Walk Away from Fentanyl" event on Saturday, July 11, 2026, demonstrating our shared commitment to saving lives.
Working together, a Fentanyl Free America is within our reach.
