About this listen
Discover your power to drive change in dental hygiene. Derik Sven reveals model legislation for dental hygiene autonomy—a blueprint hygienists can champion in their states. Federal lobbyist Quardricos Driskell shares how to amplify your voice through federal advocacy and Congressional relationships. Abby Rennau demonstrates the impact of taking action—applying for the Esther Wilkins Scholarship transformed her career, enabling bachelor's and master's degrees while teaching future hygienists. Dr. Sonika Masih shows how individual initiative creates impact through her ADHA Foundation grant "Giving Smiles," removing financial barriers for patients at Minnesota State University's clinic. Each story proves that individual action creates collective change.
