HOPA Leadership
The HOPA Board of Directors steers our strategic plan and sets the stage for us to fulfill our mission of supprting, educating, and advocating for all hematology/oncology pharmacists and all the patients we serve. They maintain and enforce the association bylaws and are the top-line of the governance structure (pdf).
Board members also serve as mentors, both formally and informally, for oncology pharmacy professionals, residents, and students. The HOPA Board welcomes your inquiries and comments and be contacted at hopaexecoffice@hoparx.org.
