The Dental Open House program is a free program in partnership with Camillus Dental Associates. This program encourages your child to come practice sitting in the dental chair with the dental hygienist. There is no treatment or diagnosis made at these appointments. Your child may come as many times as needed until they are ready for a real cleaning.  The goal is to practice going to the dentist as many times as needed to help your child know what to expect and to relieve any anxiety.
​These individualized appointments run on Fridays from May-September by appointment only. There are additional appointments added for the winter months, contact 
Aliciamorris@featofcny.org for more information. 

Behavior Consults and Family Support

In partnership with OPWDD and ACCESS CNY, we can help provide help with any challenging behaviors, toilet training, eating, safety, communication and more.
​We can provide 1:1 or group support.
Contact the manager of our grant services, Logan Smith, at logansmith@featofcny.org  for more information.
