Junior Board Members

About the Junior Board Program

SCPhA is pleased to offer pharmacy students the opportunity to learn the ropes of being a leader in the profession through our Junior Board Member program, where students will be matched with a mentor from the SCPhA Board of Directors and gain invaluable experience in association activities. Junior Board Members serve a one-year term, beginning with the August board meeting and running through SCPhA’s Annual Convention in June
