Board Opportunities

The call for Board applications has closed. Meet the AMCP Board Candidates! 

AMCP’s Board of Directors establishes AMCP’s direction on a wide range of issues, including policy, legislative and regulatory positions, membership initiatives, and strategic planning. The Board also sets priorities and focuses resources that help guide AMCP’s volunteer committees and taskforces. 

The Board is comprised of a President, President-Elect, Past President, Treasurer, and five directors. The President-elect serves a total of three years — first as President-elect, next as President, and finally as Immediate Past President. The Treasurer and Directors serve for two years. Learn more about AMCP’s Board.

All Active Members (defined as Pharmacists, Physicians, Nurses and Physician Assistants) are eligible to stand election for the office of Treasurer or Director of the AMCP Board.

By cultivating a diverse community of leaders, we benefit from a vastly richer mix of ideas and viewpoints that expand our thinking and possibilities. All eligible AMCP members are encouraged to apply. AMCP does not discriminate based on race, creed, gender, sexual orientation, age, physical handicap, or national origin.
