Description
The Incentive Grants for Practitioner Innovation in Pharmaceutical Care are the American Pharmacists Association (APhA) Foundation’s longest-running grant program, providing seed funding to pharmacists, pharmacy residents, and student pharmacists to develop or enhance innovative patient care services. The program emphasizes the creation, testing, and evaluation of new practice models in ambulatory and community pharmacy, with the goal of improving health outcomes and advancing the profession. Grants are awarded annually in two main categories: Residents and their Preceptors Incentive Grants and the Rothholz Family Innovation in Immunization Practices Incentive Grants. Supported by the Community Pharmacy Foundation and other partners, these grants help practitioners pilot new ideas, address emerging public health needs, and demonstrate the impact of pharmacy-led care.
