Program Committees

“The conference planning committee is an amazing group that clinics different clinics throughout the State of Florida. This group plans and implements meaningful conference content that helps other clinics by improving morale, sharing best practices, and creating inspiration for others. Being apart of this committee has given me the ability to meet other members, share ideas, and be apart of a positive change for free and charitable clinics across the state. I enjoy the monthly meetings leading up to our annual conference where we come together and learn, grow, and become more motivated to continue our missions”

- Theresa White, Executive Director, Community Dental Clinic
