Community Outreach
The UMKC Dental School's commitment to
meeting the oral care needs of Kansas City's under served
is evident through a number of on-going community-based programs.
Patients who cannot afford or will not
otherwise seek care from the school or private practitioners
can receive care from a number of settings including: Kansas
City Free Health Clinic, Richard Cabot Community Health Clinic,
Sam Rogers Health Clinic, Swope Parkway Health Center and
through other outreach services.
Other School of Dentistry extramural programs
regularly reach out to patients in St. Joseph, Nevada, and
Hickman Mills, MO and Olathe, KS.
In addition to outreach programs sponsored by the school,
students, faculty and staff give generously of their time
and resources to sponsor and/or participate in several programs
for the underserved in other countries including Nicaragua, Guatemala and Honduras.
