Located at 200 South Pearl Street in Albany鈥檚 South End, the Collaboratory is a hub for partnership and purpose. Created by ACPHS as a 鈥渓aboratory for collaboration,鈥� this community space brings together faculty, students and local organizations to develop programs that promote health and wellness for residents in Albany and surrounding neighborhoods.

ACPHS operates a not-for-profit community pharmacy in a medically underserved area of New York鈥檚 Capital Region, bringing care where it鈥檚 needed most. The College Hometown Pharmacy opened in 2016 in Schenectady鈥檚 Hometown Health Centers. The pharmacy serves a dual purpose: enhancing access to essential health services for residents while providing hands-on, real-world training for our students.

Each fall, ACPHS students host the Health & Wellness Expo, an event open to the entire community, offering free health services and resources. The day features a variety of offerings such as blood-pressure screenings, flu-shot clinics, bone-density screenings and more, all designed to support the health and well-being of our neighbors.

ACPHS students and faculty contribute to the community in various ways, including volunteer work and support for organizations such as the American Cancer Society, American Red Cross, Boys and Girls Clubs, Make-A-Wish Foundation, March of Dimes, Meals on Wheels, National Kidney Foundation, Parsons Child and Family Center, Ronald McDonald House, St. Jude Children鈥檚 Hospital, Toys for Tots and many more.
