“We recognize the vital role that pharmacy teams play in supporting the health of communities,” said NACDS President and CEO Steven C. Anderson. “With a focus on delivering trusted, convenient care, pharmacies are the ideal destination for comprehensive services that include nutrition information and education.”
Nourish My Health ‒ a collaboration with leading national health organizations ‒ was developed in 2023 as part of a national strategy to end hunger, improve nutrition and reduce disease. Nourish My Health encourages baseline health screening to understand disease risks; offers healthy food guides and nutrition information; provides resources for professionals; and hosts a nutrition security survey which informs meaningful access solutions.
In January, NACDS promoted Health Starts Here, showcasing NACDS member pharmacies and their commitment to supporting people, wherever they are on their health journey.

In addition to partnering with national health organizations, NACDS member pharmacy companies are participating in Nourish My Health at select locations — leveraging scheduled wellness fairs, immunization clinics, and disease awareness events.
