Recorded live at #NCPA2025, host John Beckner and co-host Ed Cohen sit down with Oluwatoyin Fadeyibi, PharmD, director of pharmacy initiatives at Community Behavioral Health, and Andrew Patterson, professor of pharmacy at the Philadelphia College of Pharmacy, for a timely conversation on behavioral health. They discuss the ongoing shortages in mental health care, the growing role of community pharmacies, and how collaborative partnerships across Pennsylvania are helping pharmacies become another critical access point — or "door" — to behavioral health support.

Host John Beckner is joined by Drew Register, director of student affairs and professional development at NCPA, Charlotte Nazar, an executive resident at NCPA, and Tiffany Capps, practice transformations lead at CPESN®, to discuss the newly enhanced Community Pharmacy Fellowship from NCPA and CPESN. The conversation explores how the fellowship was developed, what's new in the program — including a stronger focus on medication synchronization — and what prospective applicants need to know before applications are due Jan. 31, 2026.
