COHI attended the Good Oral Health Project's first Oral Health Fair in Meriden.

The Connecticut Oral Health Initiative, a not-for-profit advocacy organization for promoting oral health for all, held their Annual Meeting on December 5, 2012 at the Aquaturf in Plantsville, CT. The theme of the evening was “The Importance of Oral Health in Health Equity.”

On Wednesday evening, December 7th, an enthusiastic group of almost 90 oral health supporters from across the state gathered at COHI’s Annual Meeting, at the Aqua Turf Club in Plantsville, CT to honor the organization’s work and hear addresses by Jeannette DeJesús, Special Advisor to the Governor on Healthcare Reform, and Mark Masselli, founder and CEO of Community Health Center, Inc. of Middletown. Each discussed the status of oral health care in Connecticut and shared their personal and professional insights on the subject.
