Overview

Pharmacy Access Partnership, founded by the late Jane Boggess, PhD, was established in 1999, as a center of the independent, nonprofit Public Health Institute. Its purpose is to expand consumer access to contraceptive commodities and reproductive health services in pharmacies, and to give pharmacies a stronger role in promoting community health. Pharmacy Access Partnership, a leader in this emerging field, works to:

  • Develop and facilitate new policies
  • Advance new practices in pharmacies and clinics
  • Create more educational opportunities for consumers in pharmacies
  • Promote greater public awareness.

Pharmacy Access Partnership is foundation-supported and guided by a wide Circle of Advisors, including public health professionals, pharmacists, physicians, and healthcare advocates. Our Advisors draw experience from private, nonprofit, corporate, government, professional, and academic settings. Pharmacy Access Partnership has a small staff, and carries out much of its work through consultants and subcontractors.

The work of Pharmacy Access Partnership would not be possible without the continued support of our visionary funders. We are deeply grateful for their ideas and support. Our work is made possible through support from the following:

  • David and Lucile Packard Foundation
  • William and Flora Hewlett Foundation
  • Open Society Institute
  • Compton Foundation
  • Brush Foundation
  • California Wellness Foundation
  • Wallace Alexander Gerbode Foundation
