What kind of work will I be doing as a volunteer?

There is a wide range of tasks necessary for TMOM event. Jobs may include (but are not limited to) filling out registration paperwork with patients, moving patients from one station to the next, educating children and adults about oral health, or serving food to patients or volunteers. Due to the difficulties of assigning hundreds of people very far in advance, the majority of volunteer positions are assigned the day of the event, when you arrive. We appreciate your patience. If you hold a valid Dental Hygiene License, you can also work on one of our hygiene chairs, providing cleanings to patients.

What kind of work will I be doing as a volunteer?
