 My name is Kimberly Cruz RDH and I am the 2009-2010 President of OCDHS. I wanted to take a moment of your time to share with you the vision I have for OCDHS this coming year. My goals for this year are as follows:
- MEMBERS FIRST: First and foremost, I want to help you, our members. OCDHS is starting a new referral program to help our hygienists find jobs whether it be temporary or permanent. Times are hard and I think it is this society's responsibility to step up and help our members. I also want to bring to the foreground more of our current member benefits, such as free CEUs, entertainment discounts, and networking opportunities.
- COMMUNITY: I want the community of Orange County to know who we are and know what OCDHS is about. I want OCDHS to be a part of more community programs and have a presence at more community events to promote and foster awareness of oral health and the dental hygiene profession's role in advancing it. I also want our members to make a difference in our community. Especially in these economic times opportunities arise in which our members can help not only each other but others as well.
- BE THE VOICE OF OUR MEMBERS: I want more of you involved. I want our members to lead the pathway of this society. I want to hear your ideas. I want to showcase all our members. If you have a community project that you want OCDHS behind, let your board know. If you want to learn about a certain topic, tell us and we will find a speaker to address it at our meetings. If you want to speak on a topic, we are always eager to give you a venue to showcase your knowledge. The board wants to hear from our members. We want you to value being a member of this society by being a part of it.
Listed below is the contact information of our board and committee members for this coming year. Please take advantage of this information. I love my profession and want all of our members to embrace the joy that you get out of making a difference in people's lives.
