Situated in the Ohio River Valley, Cincinnati has grown to be a charming and diverse city, equally at ease with Fortune 500 companies as it is with local entrepreneurs.

Pharmacies are frequently the primary access point for healthcare services and supplies, especially for Latinos. As the number of Latino pharmacy clients continues to rise, and nine million Latinos in this country are of reproductive age, a significant opportunity exists to promote sexual health services and products in the pharmacy. Pharmacies are regulated by states, and must be licensed by the states they are in. They also nearly always must be licensed in other states to which they ship medicines. Pharmacies are an ideal access option for emergency contraception. Pharmacists are therefore well placed to perform a role in informing clients and promoting appropriate drug use.
