Save the date for the 2026 Veteran's Mission of Mercy!

Over the three VETMOMs hosted in Nebraska since 2023, 1,250 veterans, spouses, and surviving spouses have been treated for a total of over $1.6 million in dental care.

If you are interested in volunteering to help make the Mission of Mercy Dental Clinic a success, please sign up to join us as a volunteer today! There is a range of opportunities, from help with dental work such as triage, hygiene, and sterilization to non-dental work such as setup/takedown, patient check-in/check-out, and more.

Volunteer opportunities are available Thursday, August 27, through Saturday, August 29.

🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

Today we pause to honor the men and women who gave everything in service to our country. To the veterans and military families in our ADHA community, and to the dental hygienists who serve and have served in uniform – thank you. Please note, the ADHA office will be closed today in observance of Memorial Day and will reopen Tuesday, May 26.

💥 WE MAY NOT HAVE HIT $10,000 — BUT WE’RE STILL CELEBRATING! 💥

Together, our NDHA community raised an incredible **$6,396.80** through the HundredX campaign!

While we didn’t quite reach our $10,000 goal, we are absolutely thrilled by the support, participation, and impact our community made together.

👏 132 participants
👏 3,998 surveys completed
👏 Countless moments of support for the future of dental hygiene in Nebraska

A HUGE thank you to everyone who participated by sharing feedback and helping generate funding for NDHA — including our amazing anonymous benefactors who quietly made a big impact behind the scenes 💜

This funding helps support the profession, future programming, advocacy, student engagement, and continued opportunities for Nebraska dental hygienists.

We are so grateful for this community and proud of what we accomplished together!

Congratulations Oklahoma!🙌🏻👊🏻💜

🎉 Oklahoma is the 13th state to join the Dentist and Dental Hygienist Compact! It's official! Oklahoma Dental Hygienists' Association championed SB 540 and Gov. Kevin Stitt signed the bill into law on May 12! This is what ADHA advocacy looks like. Together, the now 13 states are advancing licensure portability for our profession.
