LICENSEES AND REGISTRANTS MAY DONATE TO THE L. STANLEY HAYWOOD RECOVERY FUND.

The NC Board of Pharmacy and the NC Professionals Health Program (NCPHP) established the L. Stanley Haywood Recovery Fund in April 2018. The Fund provides financial support to qualifying pharmacists and pharmacy personnel in need of substance use assessment, treatment, and monitoring services. Stan Haywood, who passed away in May 2018, served for thirteen years as a member of the Board of Pharmacy and well understood the public health toll of untreated substance use disorders. He championed proactive efforts to lessen this toll, including his spearheading the Fund’s creation.

In coordination with NCPHP, Board staff have created a way for individuals licensed or registered with the NC Board of Pharmacy to contribute to this Fund at any time and in any amount. Simply log in to the Board’s Licensure Gateway and select the blue tile labeled Donate to Stan Haywood Recovery Fund to be taken directly to NCPHP’s donation site.
