Rockingham County, We have something to celebrate! We won the 'Excellence in Innovation' Award at the NC Association of County Commissioners! The award specifically recognizes the county’s efforts to provide needed dental services to children in Rockingham County Schools through Mobile Dental Expansion, which is administered by the Rockingham County Division of Public Health.

The program officially started in September 2023 and provided dental care to over 174 children during its inaugural year.

“We pride ourselves on being able to serve our community...,” said Rockingham County Division of Public Health Director Trey Wright. “So, when our Public Health Leadership Team saw an opportunity to provide Mobile Dental Services, we developed and implemented a program that would bring better oral health and improved well-being for the children of Rockingham County.”

A huge congrats to all who worked on the Mobile Dental Project. Thank you for making our county a better place!
