Component Societies

Component Leaders & Volunteers

The MDA offers a multitude of resources to help any member who volunteers within their component. Visit the Component Leaders Page to access these tools.

Organized dentistry? Maybe you can!

Interested to learn about volunteer opportunities available at the state and national level? We know often many members think they don’t have time to become involved with organized dentistry … but maybe you can, and maybe by watching this video you can consider it yourself or invite someone else to do so.

The video gives an overview of opportunities and explains how little time and effort most positions require. Especially in small component societies, volunteers are being "recycled" and new participants are desired. We want to see new leaders emerge from within our membership! Even if you (or someone you're thinking would be a great choice) may not be interested right now, by seeing what volunteer members do at the MDA and ADA levels make spark interest for future involvement.
