Access to care programs

Mobile Dentistry Program

The Advocate Mobile Dental Program operates a fully equipped two treatment room 40’ mobile dental van that delivers dental care where it is needed most at various sites in the community. The mobile program works specifically with 18 partner sites throughout the city of Chicago and greater Chicagoland area to provide much needed care, and for over 20 years it has been a reliable source of dental care for those in need. The communities include low-income neighborhoods as well as groups who face special challenges accessing dental care without support such as children, seniors, individuals with mental illness and other disabilities, and people who have recently experienced homelessness.
