FIRST ANNUAL NJDS COMMUNITY SERVICE AWARDS


Ms. Schoen, Director
Division of Community Health


Another "first" in the history of the UMDNJ-New Jersey Dental School took place this past September when over 165 volunteers were recognized for their participation in community service activities sponsored by the New Jersey Dental School.

At a reception co-sponsored by the Dean's office and the Division of Community Health of the Department of General Dentistry & Community Health, over 150 volunteers were presented with a newly designed New Jersey Dental School Community Service Pin. At the same time, 15 Excellence in Community Service Awards were presented to NJDS faculty and staff and members of the private sector for their extraordinary efforts and advocacy of the dental school's community service efforts.

As Dr. Feldman says, "We are very grateful for the help of the school's volunteers and sponsors in reaching New Jersey adults and children with our oral health messages and services. Activities such as Children's Dental Health Day at the Liberty Science Center, the Essex County Children's Dental Health Day, the Special Olympics/Special Smiles event held at the College of New Jersey, the Oral Cancer Screening Program, and countless community-based health fairs throughout the state succeed because of the tireless efforts and support of our volunteers."
