AACP invites you to join us on October 29- 31, 2025 for an impactful virtual institute held in honor of American Pharmacists Month, a time not just to celebrate but to elevate the voice and value of pharmacy in today’s changing healthcare landscape. This institute is your space to reconnect with purpose, reimagine possibilities and rise to the moment together. With engaging sessions, small group discussions, and real-time collaboration. We’ll spotlight how community pharmacy is evolving, how patient care continues to expand, and how advocacy can drive meaningful change.

JCPP today announced the release of the 2025 Pharmacists’ Patient Care Process (PPCP), an update to the 2014 PPCP that is intended to reflect pharmacists’ contemporary practice and evolving trends in the health care system.
