Smile Oregon was founded in 2008 by Bob Blank and Dr. Judah Garfinkle, who brought together a diverse group of local professionals committed to improving care for Oregon children affected by cleft and craniofacial conditions. Members of our board represent the fields of finance, law, design, education, medicine, and dentistry, and include parents and family members of children born with clefts. We maintain a working board and operate multiple committees. If you are interested in volunteering with Smile Oregon in any capacity, please contact us. We are a grassroots organization made up of concerned citizens just like you.
The Issue: Children with cleft and craniofacial deformities require a coordinated series of treatment steps to restore their face, mouth, and speech to normal. While it is possible to substantially correct a cleft if the proper treatment sequence is carried out, children and families often do not have access and/or the means to arrange for the coordinated treatment they need and deserve to achieve an optimal outcome. In addition, patients and families affected by cleft and craniofacial conditions face the challenge of obtaining reliable information about these conditions, gaining access to local treatment networks, and learning where to turn for needed support.
Our Mission: To ensure that every family affected by a cleft or craniofacial condition living in Oregon has access to the coordinated care they deserve by providing support, awareness, and education
Values:
- No one turned away. Provide support to each family regardless of their ability to pay.
- Personalized service. In order to effectively meet our mission, we recognize that each family has unique needs and circumstances.
- Quality in everything we do. Each family deserves to be treated with a standard of care in a coordinated fashion.
