Eight students and one faculty member from Ë¿¹ÏÊÓƵ Tech's Dental Hygiene Program in Klamath Falls traveled to St. George, Grenada, this summer as part of a service trip. The group provided dental hygiene services to underserved populations with limited or no dental care access.
The team members were senior students Surayha Cox, Callie Drescher, Kade Hutchins, Tim Le, Chelsea Thomas, Abbi Thompson, Gabby Tomas, and Lauren Vo. Assistant Professor Jeannie Bopp arranged the trip and traveled with the students.
The trip provided much-needed dental care to underserved populations and gave students an opportunity to develop confidence, skills, and a passion for community service. These skills can benefit them in future work settings such as public health, dental missions, rural health, and mobile dentistry.
