Proactively Addressing Healthcare Disparities in Your Local Community 

Independent pharmacists are trusted and accessible resources who have long-standing connections with the communities they serve. Because of this, they are uniquely positioned to create opportunities for quality care, reduce disparities and increase prescription adherence by building inclusive relationships with culturally diverse patients.
