Beyond the Op: Get Involved
I am currently serving as the Component Director for the Southern Component and I'm planning a Free Dental Hygiene Day for the community on February 14, 2026.
We are currently seeking donations of dental hygiene supplies as well as volunteers to help make this event possible. Any monetary donations collected on the day of the event will be used to support the Southern Component.
Did you know that there are many volunteer positions that are available with CODHA?
