A Strategic Partnership Rooted in Shared Values
The ASTDD Foundation exists to support and advance the mission of ASTDD. Formed as ASTDD’s philanthropic arm, the Foundation creates new opportunities to invest in leadership, innovation, and long-term sustainability for state and territorial oral health programs.
By strengthening the people, partnerships, and infrastructure behind oral health, the Foundation helps advance ASTDD’s strategic vision and expand what is possible for the oral health system. That is what we mean by Strengthening Leaders. Improving Oral Health. Together with ASTDD, we are helping ensure that oral health leadership remains strong, connected, and rooted Where Oral Health Lives.
