About USC Middle Eastern Pharmacists Association
MEPhA (Middle Eastern Pharmacists Association) is a student-led affinity group at the University of Southern California's Alfred E. Mann School of Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Sciences, serving the Los Angeles, CA area. As part of USC Mann's Office of Organizational Success and Well-Being, MEPhA represents a commitment to building inclusive communities where members can celebrate their identities while advancing their professional careers in pharmacy and healthcare.
The organization was established to unite the Middle Eastern pharmacist community across California, creating a supportive network built on shared cultural backgrounds, professional aspirations, and a dedication to improving healthcare outcomes. MEPhA recognizes the unique perspectives and contributions that Middle Eastern healthcare professionals bring to patient care and community health initiatives. By fostering mentorship relationships and professional development opportunities, the association empowers its members to become leaders and advocates in their respective healthcare fields.
MEPhA's approach emphasizes collaboration, awareness, and unity—values that align with USC Mann's broader commitment to creating a thriving community of connection and belonging. The organization actively promotes healthcare awareness programs that benefit surrounding communities while providing members with networking platforms to build lasting professional relationships. This dual focus on community service and professional growth distinguishes MEPhA as a meaningful contributor to both the pharmacy profession and the Los Angeles region.
Open to all USC Mann students, faculty, staff, and alumni, MEPhA welcomes individuals who share an interest in supporting Middle Eastern pharmacy professionals and advancing healthcare equity. Through active engagement on social media and direct community outreach, MEPhA maintains an accessible, welcoming environment where members can grow professionally while strengthening their connections to one another and to the broader healthcare community they serve.
