Menomonee Falls Clinic Celebrates Two Years
August marks the second anniversary of our second clinic site in Menomonee Falls. The addition of this clinic, made possible in large part by a generous grant and strategic leadership from Froedtert & the Medical College of Wisconsin health network, has opened up the WCCDC's services to those in Milwaukee, Ozaukee, and Washington County, along with more from Waukesha County.

With information from a community needs assessment, gathered by our partners at Froedtert & the MCW health network, we knew a considerable gap in dental care access existed in the larger four-county region.

We have been affirmed by the demand for treatment at our new site, serving a majority of patients who have had no or extremely limited access to dental care previously.

Supporting These Smiles
Like many, 2020 has been a challenging year but one that has affirmed the WCCDC mission, with more patients than ever finding nowhere else to turn for dental care.

As we continue to care for these populations, financial support of our mission is more important than ever.

A gift of any size greatly assists low-income patients with crucial dental care.

Thank you for your generosity!
From all your friends at the WCCDC,
stay safe, stay healthy and stay in touch!
