We’re excited to share a major milestone for pharmacy practice in Tennessee!

TPA has officially launched the Tennessee Society of Ambulatory Care Pharmacists (TSACP)—a new professional community dedicated to advancing ambulatory care across the state.

This achievement reflects years of vision, advocacy, and dedication from ambulatory care pharmacists who recognized the need for a stronger, unified voice. Following Board approval in February 2026, TSACP is now moving forward with inaugural leadership appointed by TPA President Katy Wright. Learn more at: https://bit.ly/4oh9oin

We look forward to the impact TSACP will have on patient care and the future of pharmacy in Tennessee!
