Reimagining the Pharmacy Workforce: Training the Next Generation for Public Health Impact

This session explores innovative approaches to pharmacy workforce development that are reshaping how we train, mentor, and deploy future pharmacy professionals. As healthcare shifts toward community-based, prevention-focused models, there is an urgent need to prepare students, residents, and early-career pharmacists to lead in areas like HIV prevention, chronic disease management, and health equity. Drawing on the success of the Legacy Pharmacy Internship Program and AmeriCorps Pharmacy Advocate initiative, we highlight scalable strategies for embedding learners in high-impact roles that serve marginalized populations. Through stories, data, and implementation insights, we illustrate how a mission-driven, multidisciplinary approach can cultivate a diverse and empowered pharmacy workforce that is ready to meet tomorrow’s challenges today.
