Focus AreaIn support of its mission to build caring, resilient communities, the Delta Dental Community Care Foundation (DDCCF) works with nonprofit partners across to increase access to oral health care, fund oral health education and support organizations that serve vital needs in our communities. Since 2011, the Foundation has awarded more than $150 million across Delta Dental's 15 enterprise states and the District of Columbia. In 2020, the board and leadership at Delta Dental Community Care Foundation committed to addressing the increasing disparities in oral health for older adults, which has become a public health crisis. An alarming number of older adults are accessing oral health care only at the point of emergency or not at all. As a result, they suffer from indignity, health problems and poorer quality of life. Through this grant opportunity, The Delta Dental Community Care Foundation will dedicate up to $5 million in grant funding over five years to a collaborative of organizations serving a defined geographic community.
