Building Partnerships to Promote Oral Health for Older Adults

Event Description: 

Oral Health America (OHA) is hosting an informative webinar on its state partnership opportunities with the older adult program, the Wisdom Tooth Project®. Through the partnership, aging organizations and oral health coalitions can help improve access to resources for older adults. This opportunity also allows organizations to collaborate with other agencies in their state to address the needs and barriers older adults face. The goal of the webinar is to expand the network of state oral health coalitions and aging organizations working in collaboration.
 
Participants will learn more about OHA and how to get involved with the Wisdom Tooth Project. Matthew Bond, Manager of Grants and Programs of the DentaQuest Foundation, will present on Oral Health 2020. Participants will also hear from current OHA state partners: Suzanne Tanis, RDH,  Michigan Coalition for Oral Health for the Aging; Gary Colangelo, Delaware Oral Health Coalition; and Chris Oakes, Delaware Aging and Disability.
