What was
originally planned as a Children's Dental Health Month activity has grown
to a regular monthly event. Free dental sealants are being provided for
children who are residents in Indianapolis homeless shelters and shelters
for victims of domestic violence. In November 2000, when a request was
made to the Student Affair Council for 40 students, staff and faculty volunteered
to help with this project - an overwhelming 110 volunteered. Because of
the enthusiastic response of IUSD personnel and the warm welcome of
shelter staff, the program will continue on a regular basis. The agencies
that are currently participating are Julian Center, Coburn Place, Holy
Family Shelter, and Dayspring Shelter.
