Congratulations, Kristen! We are proud to have you as a member of APA.

From NCPA:

The NCPA House of Delegates installed Kristen Riddle, PharmD, as the 2025-2026 NCPA president. A previous president of the Arkansas Pharmacists Association and delegate to the United States Pharmacopeia, Riddle is the co-owner of American Home Pharmacy in Clinton, Ark. along with her husband Jeremy Riddle.

In her remarks on assuming the role, Riddle noted that the role of pharmacists has broadened to include prevention, education, chronic care management, and other clinical services.

"We are not simply dispensers — we are providers, advocates, innovators, and leaders in the health care system," she said.

Referencing Arkansas Gov. Sarah Huckabee Sanders (R), who spoke during the convention about the state’s fight to pass groundbreaking legislation to prohibit state permits to pharmacies owned by pharmacy benefit managers, Riddle said, "Courage is contagious! And we are encouraging every state in the union to join this fight and pass this legislation."

NCPA and the Arkansas Pharmacists Association filed a legal brief in defense of a landmark Arkansas law blocking companies from operating a PBM and a pharmacy in the state simultaneously. “The law protects patients by simply saying a business can either be a licensed PBM or a licensed pharmacy — but not both,” said APA CEO John Vinson. NCPA CEO Douglas Hoey added, “The Arkansas law is a model for the country.”
