Whittier Tech Dental Assisting instructors Ms. Deveau and Ms. Costa spent their Saturday giving back in a remarkable way.
Both instructors volunteered at Massachusetts’ first Mission of Mercy event, a large volunteer-run clinic hosted by the Massachusetts Dental Society that provides free dental care to community members who may not otherwise have access. From fillings and extractions to root canals and oral health education, hundreds of patients received care grounded in compassion and teamwork.
Ms. Deveau and Ms. Costa shared that it was inspiring to work alongside dental professionals and students from across the state to support healthier smiles for all.
Moments like these reflect the Whittier Way… serving the community with skill, heart, and purpose.
