Henry Schein’s donations will be used during the Special Olympic World Winter Games for screenings in seven Healthy Athletes disciplines, including Special Smiles® (dentistry), which provides athletes with comprehensive oral health care information, free dental screenings, instructions on proper brushing and flossing techniques, and, if needed, a referral to a dental care provider at home trained to treat people with IDD.

“At Henry Schein, we are strongly committed to ‘help health happen’ and to create shared value for society,” said Jennifer Kim Field, Chief Sustainability Officer at Henry Schein. “We are honored to support Healthy Athletes – alongside Special Olympics and health care providers – to provide convenient access to quality health care and to ensure a healthier future for Special Olympics athletes who are often at higher risk for experiencing health disparities.”
Since its inception in 1997, Healthy Athletes has delivered over two million free health screenings and trained over 300,000 health care professionals, clinical volunteers, and students in using adapted screening protocols and in communicating effectively with people with IDD. These training sessions also aid in building the health care community’s capacity to serve the needs of people with IDD outside of Special Olympics events, as providers take these skills back to their practices and provide higher-quality health care to people with IDD – not just Special Olympic athletes – in their communities.
The donations to Special Olympics Healthy Athletes are an initiative of Henry Schein Cares, the Company’s global corporate citizenship program.
