Healthy Athletes is a Special Olympics program that provides free health screenings in a fun, welcoming environment that removes the anxiety and fear people with intellectual disabilities often experience when faced with a visit to a doctor or dentist.  Special Smiles is one of the core components of the Special Olympics Healthy Athletes initiative, created to focus attention on the overall health issues facing Special Olympics athletes. The mission of Special Smiles is to increase access to dental care for Special Olympics athletes, as well as all people with intellectual disabilities.

We are looking for dental professionals to fill the Special Smiles Volunteer roles at the Indoor Sports Tournament on April 7th at UW-Oshkosh (DDS, RDH, Dental Assistant, Hygiene student, Dental student, and Pre-Dental students).

Registration is now closed for this event. For volunteer opportunities please contact MSchoenbrodt@SpecialOlympicsWisconsin.org.
