Thank you former US Surgeon General @JeromeAdamsMD for bringing health equity to the forefront and discussing how pharmacists can play a necessary role @AACPharmacy. “The choices we make are based on the choices we have” #healthequity #PharmEd22

I was so moved to see Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson confirmed this afternoon. Like so many of you, I can’t help but feel a sense of pride—a sense of joy—to know that this deserving, accomplished Black woman will be a part of the highest court in the land.
