The dental hygiene profession is under attack. We’re defending against coordinated legislative assaults state-by-state across America that threaten educational standards and attempt to create undertrained substitutes for licensed dental hygienists putting the safety of the public at risk.
It takes a unified profession to defend ourselves. We need your voice and support now.
How You Can Make a Difference
The best way to support our advocacy efforts is to become an ADHA member. If you choose not to join ADHA, you can still make an impact by contributing directly to our advocacy efforts. Or maximize your impact by doing both. Every dollar of your donation helps us fight harmful legislation and protect professional standards at all levels.
Your Contribution Powers Real Action
As the leading national voice for dental hygienists, ADHA is uniquely positioned to advocate for the profession at national and state levels. At the federal level, your support creates a stronger presence on Capitol Hill, expands professional lobbying efforts, develops shareable resources and funds a National Lobby Day. On the state level, it provides tools for legislative battles, supports our BillTrack50 and Voter Voice software for rapid response, and expands our presence at state lobby days.
Your support helps us mobilize quickly as these attacks increase and ensure all 220,000+ dental hygienists can be heard when it matters most.
