Kentucky Youth Advocates is working to create systems level policy change and promote evidence-based practices to improve the oral health of Kentuckians. KYA will begin the process for the implementation of a statewide oral health coalition, bringing together key stakeholders, convening a steering committee conducting informant interviews and a statewide assessment of oral health. The resulting information will be presented in a report that will be reviewed by a steering committee who will set state priorities. KYA aims to be an online clearinghouse of Kentucky-specific oral health information.
