When the announcement was made at APhA2026 that our chapter had received the award, it felt like a defining moment that brought everything into perspective.

Pharmacy was never a profession I expected to pursue, yet it has become one of the most rewarding decisions I have made.

Receiving the APhA–ASP Chapter Policy and Legislative Award at APhA2026 was an incredible honor because it recognized the students and mentors who worked together to build a stronger culture of advocacy.
