The OC Oral Health Collaborative, also known as the Advisory Committee, convenes every three months to inform, advise, assist, support, and advocate for the mission and vision of the LOHP. If you have any questions about the LOHP or would like more information regarding the Oral Health Collaborative, you may reach us by email at lohp@ochca.com.
The Local Oral Health Program funding was made possible by the enactment of Proposition 56, the California Healthcare, Research and Prevention Tobacco Tax of 2016 which levied an additional $2 tax on tobacco and tobacco products.
