Arc of Florida Dental Services Scholarship

With Halloween coming up next week, we should keep in mind eating a lot of candy isn't good for our teeth. Speaking of teeth, The Arc of Florida is offering dental services scholarships to individuals who participate in the following Agency for Persons with Disabilities (APD) programs: Medicaid Individual Budgeting Waiver, Medicaid Waiver Waitlist, and Consumer Directed Care Plus. (However, funding in the individual's APD cost plan for dental must be applied before the scholarship money can be spent.) In addition to cleanings and X-rays, the procedures covered by the scholarship include fillings, crowns, and root canals. People interested in the scholarship must fill out an application (available at http://www.arcflorida.org/dental/) and send it by email, fax, or mail to The Arc of Florida. Hundreds of applications are received every month, so applicants won't get an immediate response. This scholarship is making many people smile!
