RxA is a not-for-profit, membership-based association. Our activities are governed by an elected Board of Directors who dictate responsibilities related to organization priorities and initiatives.

For over two decades, the Alberta Pharmacists’ Association (RxA) has been a champion for pharmacists in Alberta. It is our vision to be the voice of a unified, innovative and inspired profession. We play an integral role in expanding pharmacists’ practice, and we continue to advocate on your behalf for excellence in patient care.

With the backing of a strong membership, RxA will continue to ensure that the profession of pharmacy remains valued and viable for another 20 years.

We acknowledge that what we call Alberta is the traditional and ancestral territory of many peoples, presently subject to Treaties 6, 7, and 8. Namely: the Blackfoot Confederacy – Kainai, Piikani, and Siksika – the Cree, Dene, Saulteaux, Nakota Sioux, Stoney Nakoda, and the Tsuu T’ina Nation and the Métis People of Alberta. This includes the Métis Settlements and the Six Regions of the Métis Nation of Alberta within the historical Northwest Metis Homeland. We acknowledge the many First Nations, Métis and Inuit who have lived in and cared for these lands for generations. We are grateful for the traditional Knowledge Keepers and Elders who are still with us today and those who have gone before us. We make this acknowledgement as an act of reconciliation and gratitude to those whose territory we reside on.
