Nominations Committee
On the Lookout for Leadership

Every year ICHP elects new members to its Board of Directors. As existing officers complete their terms, they often move into other leadership positions within ICHP. That means we’re always on the lookout for more pharmacy professionals to step into leadership roles within the organization.

This year is no exception. If you’ve been wanting to get more involved with ICHP, now’s your chance! With Carrie Vogler completing her term as Immediate Past President and several other offices up for election, there are several that will need candidates. Below is a list of the offices open for election in the Fall of 2021.

All the elected candidates will take office at the 2021 Annual Meeting with the exception of the President-elect, who assumes office immediately. So each new leader will have almost a year to train for their new job and be coached by our current Board Members. You don’t have to run that race unprepared! Job descriptions for each office may be found on the ICHP website at: www.ichpnet.org/about_us/board_of_directors/job_descriptions/.

ICHP Board officers to be elected this fall:

President-elect
Secretary-elect
Secretary (1 year term)
Director-elect of the Division of Educational Affairs
Director-elect of the Division of Marketing Affairs
Technician Representative-elect
Chair-elect of the New Practitioners Network

If you are interested in running for an office or you would like to know more about an office before committing to run, you may contact the Committee on Nominations Chair, Carrie Vogler at cvogler@siue.edu or Chris Crank at chrisc@ichpnet.org. We hope you are ready to help lead the way for ICHP and Pharmacy!
