New York State Dental Foundation Presents Albert H. Stevenson Award

THE NEW YORK STATE DENTAL FOUNDATION recognizes an outstanding graduating student from each of the dental hygiene schools in the state with the presentation of the Albert H. Stevenson Award. This award is given to a graduating student who displays the leadership qualities and enthusiasm that Dr. Stevenson gave to the field of oral hygiene. Dr. Stevenson proudly communicated the importance of the oral hygiene field and advocated to have dental hygiene recognized as a licensed profession. The dental hygiene profession as it stands today is due, in part, to Dr. Stevenson’s tireless dedication.

Stevenson Award are: Maduri Mathoor, New York City College of Technology; Elisabeth Keeler, Hudson Valley Community College; Sanaa Wade, SUNY Broome; Grace Noto, Monroe Community College; Danielle Harris, Erie Community College; Kate Wright, SUNY Orange; Marjuany Graterol, Hostos Community College; Janet Duffy, State University of New York at Farmingdale; and Noelle Gerace, NYU College of Dentistry.
