Community Outreach

Community service activities provide exciting opportunities for dental hygiene students to give back to their community by participating in local programs and health fairs. 

Dental Health Education and Public Health courses are a requirement in which Dental Hygiene Program students present dental education lessons to students at local schools such as the Western Pennsylvania School for Blind Children, the DePaul Institute for Hearing and Speech, and local pre-and elementary schools and high schools.

Students also participate in community based public health programs for the undeserved.
