ACT Task Force

The ACT Pharmacy Collaborative Task Force provides strategic leadership and guidance to advance community-based pharmacy practice transformation. The Task Force brings together pharmacy educators, national pharmacy organizations, practice partners, and AACP staff to set priorities, guide initiatives, and foster collaboration across education and practice. Through oversight of committees, affinity groups, and signature programs, the Task Force helps ensure the Collaborative’s work is aligned with emerging needs, supports innovation, and accelerates meaningful, scalable change across the pharmacy ecosystem.
