WSDA Board Anti-Discrimination Statement

Our dental community is comprised of people from all backgrounds and walks of life — this diversity makes us stronger and more capable of providing optimal oral health care to all patients. We must collectively act on behalf of our colleagues, our patients, our communities, and ourselves to denounce discrimination in all of its forms. It is vital that we embrace and learn from the diverse experiences of our peers and be actively nondiscriminatory in our workplaces and organizations.

“This is the moment to unravel from whatever personal biases we may harbor. To become allies. To have the hard conversations. To listen to voices that have long gone unheard. To speak up for those who have been disenfranchised. To commit to empathy and understanding. To be forces for change. To be agents of harmony. To call out wrong when we see it. And to do what’s right when we can.” – From “The Power to Heal Our Communities”
