This story from our FAFCC member Community Dental Clinic is a powerful reminder how important our Legislative Priorities are in gaining funding for our dental health services. In FY24–25, the Florida Legislature provided $3 million in non-recurring dollars for dental and mental health services.

Clinics purchased new dental equipment, added behavioral health staff, and launched integrated programs that addressed both oral health and mental health needs.

Thank you to Community Dental Clinic and all our dental clinics, providers and volunteers who have helped make our mission possible. And, congratulations to Troy for a beautiful smile!

We ❤ our members!

For Men’s Health Month, we’re reminding men that taking care of your health starts with showing up.

That can mean scheduling a checkup, asking questions, getting screened, talking about mental health, or reaching out before something becomes urgent.
Free and charitable clinics help reduce barriers to care by connecting patients to trusted support in their communities.

This month, encourage the men in your life to check in, speak up, and prioritize their health. 💙
