The Delta Dental Community Care Foundation gave a $5 million grant to improve access to dental care for underserved seniors in the Mississippi Delta region.
This is the foundation’s fourth project under its Senior Oral Health Partnership Program. The initiative will partner with local organizations, including the Delta Health Center, the Delta Health System, the Mississippi State Office of Oral Health, and the Bolivar County Council on Aging Inc., to expand dental services, offer mobile care and transportation, and support education and advocacy to improve oral health for rural seniors.
