The Niagara Falls Community Health Centre (NFCHC) and Green Shield Canada (GSC) are partnering to create the Green Door Oral Health Fund – an innovative dental public health program – that will offer access to dental care throughout the region, all at no cost to eligible patients.
Green Shield Canada’s Green Door Project has committed $880,000 (through an annual gift of $220,000 for four consecutive years) to allow NFCHC to offer cost-free care for hundreds of eligible low-income adults in the Niagara region who are currently unable to access regular dental care through either private health insurance or any form of social assistance.
