With only 25 in-district work days left in July and August, the pharmacy community continues its great work promoting pro-patient, pro-pharmacy policy priorities to Members of Congress and their staff via the NACDS RxIMPACT Pharmacy Tour Program.
Designed to create opportunities for pharmacy advocates to educate policymakers about the value of pharmacy, the program schedules tours while policymakers are home in the district. Further, it shares with advocates key tips on how to host an effective pharmacy tour, utilize impactful communication tactics, and discuss key policy issues.
Highlights from 2022 NACDS RxIMPACT in-district activities:
Spent the day in Jersey Shore, Lycoming County meeting with some outstanding businesses and organizations who are doing great work in the community.

Local pharmacies are crucial to making sure that #NJ11 families have what they need to stay healthy. I visited the ShopRite of Greater Morristown last week to hear more about the issues facing pharmacies and how to ensure they can continue to best serve residents. pic.twitter.com/W85d0w7fcq
