Lobby Day

ASDA Lobby Day is a national advocacy event where dental students come together in Washington, D.C. to meet with legislators about key issues affecting dental education and the profession. Attendees receive training on the legislative process and how to effectively share their stories, then participate in scheduled meetings to discuss ASDA’s advocacy priorities, such as student debt, licensure reform, access to care, and oral health policy. Lobby Day empowers students to build relationships with policymakers, develop confidence in political engagement, and make a direct impact on the future of dentistry.
