NYSADC Scholarship to Address Oral Health Disparities

Scholarships to fight against oral health disparities

Our community relies on dental students and residents who serve special needs patients. Unfortunately, these individuals are in short supply and high demand. With the NYSADC Scholarship, these individuals can receive critical funding and training to

continue to serve special needs individuals, especially those with intellectual and developmental disabilities.

  • Scholarship recipients will receive up to $42,000 towards tuition and fees at an academic dental center or residency program in New York State.

Who is eligible?

  • Third- and fourth-year predoctoral dental students and eligible residents interested in additional training in providing care for people with I/DD are encouraged to apply.

Post Fellowship Commitments
