A Delta Dental foundation and Washington state nonprofit that advocates for Black and brown communities are collaborating to help Black and brown communities get better access to oral healthcare, they told NBC Right Now KNDU 25.
The purpose of the Arcora Foundation, fully funded by Delta Dental of Washington state, is to improve oral health. Arcora and Women of Wisdom Tri-Cities will host meetings allowing dental experts and community members to discuss the importance of oral healthcare and its effect on overall health.
After the meetings, the foundation will use the discussions to plan ways to best serve the community.
