Volunteer-powered Dental Care Events

With an estimated 5.2 million Californians having no dental insurance, private or public, there’s a great need to shine the light on access to care and reach out to communities most in need. The California Dental Association and CDA Foundation host CDA Cares, a program that allows volunteer dentists, with the assistance of other dental professionals and community volunteers, to provide dental services at no charge to an average of 1,950 people at each event.
