Special Appeal: 

Special Appeal Please help us raise much-needed funds for dental care for BCAP’s clients. Funding for dental needs has dropped significantly since 2008. In 2009, BCAP’s funding allowed us to meet the dental needs of 50 clients; in 2010, we assisted 69 clients with unmet dental needs. This year, only 25 individuals have received assistance for dental care; and 50-65% were turned away due to a lack of funding. A majority of our new clients have never seen a dentist. 75% of those BCAP serves are living at levels below the poverty level.
