The 4th Annual New England Pharmacists Convention is scheduled for Thursday, September 18th and Friday, September 19th at Mohegan Sun Hotel and Casino. The New England Pharmacists Convention is a regional conference serving as a source of continuing education tailored specifically to pharmacy professionals and serves to promote a climate conducive to excellance in pharmacy practice. Our Annual Meeting has fast become a premier event for pharmacy professionals throughout the Northeast region. Pharmacists gather at the meeting to learn from experts in the field, to view the latest products and services at our growing Exhibit Show, and to network with colleagues. This year, our event returns with the extended day and Exhibit Show on Friday, September 19th. We hope you will join us for what promises to be another successful year!

NBC-30 Health & Wellness Festival - October 25 & 26
The Connecticut Pharmacists Foundation and CPA will once again participate in the Health and Wellness Festival hosted by NBC-30 at the Hartford Convention Center. Pharmacists and pharmacy students from the University of Connecticut helped to volunteer in administering medication reviews to attendees and distribute the ‘file of life’. We hope to encourage more pharmacists to volunteer their time during these two days (Saturday and Sunday) for a good cause and showcase the practice of pharmacy! If you are interesting in volunteering, please email
