APhA is the first-established national professional society of pharmacists,having been founded in 1852 as the American Pharmaceutical Association. It remains the largest association of pharmacists in the United States,boasting more than 60,000 practicing pharmacists,pharmaceutical scientists,student pharmacists,pharmacy technicians,and others interested in advancing the profession. Through a House of Delegates that meets each year at the APhA Annual Meeting & Exposition,APhA provides a forum for discussion,consensus building,and policy setting for the profession of pharmacy. In fact,nearly all of pharmacy's specialty organizations trace their roots to a section or component of APhA.
