Cass County’s Grow Your Own Program Brings Dental Careers to Life

In this episode of Health Talks, we spoke with Nicole Roege and Amy Thompson from Cass County Health Department about their innovative "Grow Your Own" program. This program is designed to introduce high school students to the rewarding field of public health dentistry. We explore how the first year of this program is already reshaping the future of rural oral health. By partnering with local school districts and using the health department's dental clinic, they’re building career pathways and cultivating a future workforce in rural Illinois.

Tune in as we explore how this unique program got started, the impact it’s having in its first year, and what it takes to spark interest in oral health careers in underserved communities. It’s a program that’s already making a difference and one that other health centers could replicate. Whether you're a health leader, educator, or simply curious about how community-based training can inspire the next generation, this episode delivers insight, inspiration, and practical takeaways.
