May 2025

I want to start with a shout out for a successful and fun filled CADAT CDAA 2025 Conference!  Thank you to those who attended, the sponsors, the speakers, the conference team and the boots on the ground! 

There was much to celebrate, including having both Joan Greenfeld and Barbara Blade together.  It was great to meet in person and share 2 very full days of education, networking and fun!  If you have not already done so, please be sure to complete your CE evaluations and fill out your conference survey.  The conference team will be starting to work on our 2026 conference soon, so save the date…April 17-18, 2026.   Location TBD…so stay tuned.

Thank you to those who also picked up volunteer applications.  Please fill those out and email to president@cadat.org.  They will be reviewed in the next few weeks, so please get them sent in.

The Dental Assisting Council and Dental Board meetings will be held at the Anaheim Hilton, May 14-15, 2025.  Please attend if you can.   Here is the link to the meeting and materials.    https://www.dbc.ca.gov/about_us/meetings/index.shtml. 

As we start into a new year for our CADAT leadership, we look forward to growing the CADAT BOD and want to encourage you to join us.  Get involved!  Help us to continue CADAT’s momentum and watch us grow!

Thank you for the opportunity to serve.
