Dental Navigator & SCDA First Annual Walk/Run 5K
The event is the first annual 5K walk/run presented in partnership between the Dental Navigator program and the Special Care Dentistry Association at the University of Michigan School of Dentistry. It takes place on July 11, 2026, at the University of Michigan School of Dentistry, 2230 Platt Rd, Ann Arbor, MI 48104.
The stated purpose is to raise awareness about providing compassionate, accessible dental care for people who face significant barriers to treatment. The event also raises funds to cover transportation costs that help bring uninsured or Medicaid patients to dental appointments they might otherwise miss. The organizers note attention to patients with complex medical needs and those facing financial, physical, or systemic challenges.
The distance for the primary event is 5 kilometers (3.1 miles). Registration information provided by the organizer includes an opening date of May 28, 2026 and a closing date of July 11, 2026, with a registration fee of $25.00.
