NASPA Potential Associate Member:

We welcome your interest in state pharmacy associations.   As you are probably aware, in an effort to strengthen all state pharmacy associations and to allow for more collaboration with the national organizations and NASPA Associate Members, NASPA members decided in 2007 to employ full time dedicated staff for NASPA. 

What will you get with NASPA membership?

  • Enhance communications – an updated Web site will be launched prior to the end of the year .  Each member will receive monthly electronic communication. Additionally, webinars on new and emerging issues the states are facing are being considered.
  • Increased strength and collaboration of state pharmacy associations – together we are stronger.  We are currently evaluating the top priority areas NASPA will concentrate on to achieve this goal. 
  • Increased collaboration with other organizations and NASPA Associate Members.  A priority for NASPA staff is to work with diverse organizations to enhance state pharmacy association effectiveness.
  • Increased visibility.  We will continue to allow associate members  to present topic(s) of interest at least annually and to share information with state pharmacy associations through the NASPA state executive list-serve. Also, our live meetings allow for invaluable networking opportunities 
  • Enhanced contribution by all members on priority issues for state pharmacy associations.  There will be an opportunity to participate in workgroups on identified issues/priorities with NASPA  state executive  membership.

As Robert Kennedy once said: “The future does not belong to those who are content with today, apathetic toward common problems and their fellow man alike, timid and fearful in the face of bold projects and new ideas. Rather, it will belong to those who can blend passion, reason and courage in a personal commitment to the great enterprises and ideals of American society." 
We welcome your input.  We recognize that you may have questions or may wish to discuss membership with us, so please give us a call if you would like to discuss further.
