Bowman joins Oral Health Kansas

Doug Bowman has joined Oral Health Kansas as the Community Coalition Coordinator. In his new role, Doug will work with communities across the state to form and strengthen coalitions to address local oral health issues.

Many of InterHab's members will remember Bowman, from his more than two decades of work as the staff director of the State ICC (Interagency Coordinating Counil for Early Childhhood Devlopment) , which provides advice and comment to the State and to legislators regarding IDEA Programs, Part B (3-5 special education) and Part C (the tiny-k program).

Bowman's move to Oral Health Kansas stengthens the already favorable climate at OHK in the recognition and exercise of inclusive views regarding oral health policies. The executive director of OHK is Tanya Dorf Brunner, who many members will recall as the director of training and conferences at InterHab in the mid-1990s.
