Preamble and Mission Statement
of the National Association of Boards of Pharmacy

Preamble
Given that medications are an integral part of disease management, medication therapies and their delivery systems are becoming more complex, technological enhancements have improved the capabilities for patient monitoring, and entities motivated by economic gain are eroding standards of care, there is greater potential for harm to the public and a greater need for patients’ medication use to be managed by a licensed pharmacist and state regulatory agencies to aggressively enforce standards of care.

NABP Mission Statement
The National Association of Boards of Pharmacy (NABP) is the independent, international, and impartial association that assists its member boards and jurisdictions in developing, implementing, and enforcing uniform standards for the purpose of protecting the public health.
