WASHINGTON, DC—The American Pharmacists Association (APhA) announced today that it has entered into a contracted project agreement with CDC’s Applied Research and Evaluation Branch in the Division for Heart Disease and Stroke Prevention to accelerate the implementation of pharmacy-based strategies to advance health equity and prevent heart disease and stroke.

APhA stands with every pharmacist who participated in the walkout today. The bottom line is that we support every pharmacist’s right to work in an environment with staffing that supports your ability to provide patient care. We know that these are steps you deem necessary in order to be heard by your employer.

WASHINGTON, DC (October 3, 2023) — American Pharmacists Month (APhM) is here, and the American Pharmacists Association (APhA) invites everyone to join in celebrating the essential contributions of pharmacists to health care and their communities.
