In this episode of Straight Up With Steph, I sat down with Erin and Lancette, the President and President-Elect of American Dental Hygienists' Association’s (ADHA), as we talk about their ongoing initiatives, including their drive for license portability and their efforts to update standards of practice to include new technologies and airway assessments. We delve into the controversial Nevada bill, the importance of advocacy, and what “autonomy” truly means for our profession.
This episode gets honest about membership dollars, how the ADHA structures their efforts at the state and national levels, and why unity and legislative engagement are more critical than ever.
