Community
Health Programs
The
Community Health Programs (CHP) component of CREEDD entails both school-based
programs as well as community programs that serve disadvantaged families,
children, refugees, and homeless women. The creation of new programs
as well as the continuation of existing programs has been made possible
through a broad-based collaborative effort involving the Boston Public
Health Commission, the Community Health Program at Boston University
School of Dental Medicine, the Massachusetts Coalition for Oral Health,
and various public schools and community centers in Massachusetts.
