She has been a member of the OPA Practice Advancement & Innovation Committee for several years and has developed resources to help pharmacists build relationships with stakeholders and provide quality services. Sabatino was also involved with OPA’s New Practitioner Experience Committee where she worked to increase the engagement of Ohio’s student pharmacists.

Jen's response when asked Why do you belong to OPA? Since my first exposure to the organization, OPA has continuously provided me with opportunities to share a room with Ohio pharmacy leaders and peers. When practice presents a problem to solve or an innovative idea to explore, OPA provides its members and staff as the resource center.
“We are pleased to recognize Jen Sabatino who has exemplified leadership, excellence, and vision in her practice. She has been a valued member of the Association, and we look forward to her future contributions to the profession of pharmacy,” said Ernest Boyd, OPA Executive Director.
OPA, established in 1879, represents more than 4,000 pharmacists, pharmacy educators, and pharmacy students throughout the state. It is OPA’s mission to unite the profession of pharmacy and encourage interprofessional relations, while promoting public health through education, discussion, and legislation.
