On Demand Kare is a nonprofit organization dedicated to oral health equity in the United States. Our mission is to improve access to care by (i) providing grants to providers who agree to serve in underserved communities and (ii) funding treatment for uninsured procedures required by those experiencing financial hardship.
A recent report from HRSA, which is part of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, showed that at the end of 2017 almost 63 million people—more than one of every five U.S. residents—lived in dental deserts. In 2000, according to HRSA, it was one of every 10. That year, 27 million lived in dental deserts. That number has since ballooned by 36 million.
