On April 27 the Jon C. Burr Foundation & the Lunder-Dineen Health Education Alliance of Maine are co-sponsoring Advocating for Change: Older Adults and Oral Health Care, a viewing and discussion of the video we produced with Burr Foundation called Hidden Pain: America’s Oral Health Crisis. This inaugural, virtual program will bring together stakeholders from Maine, Massachusetts, Michigan, Oklahoma and Virginia championing the importance of oral health as total health in older adults and Medicare-eligible individuals with disabilities. A panel discussion and audience participation will build awareness, educate, and generate ideas to promote equality and justice in our health care system.
This is the second multi-state gathering around this video – we’re excited to see media leading to potential policy changes!
Those interested in attending can contact Host Committee member Betty Peebles.
