How The Process Works.
- Application period is open the first two weeks of every quarter.
- Fill out online application.
What you will need:
- Write a brief essay on how dental work would impact your quality of life, career, self-esteem, etc.
- Upload a Letter of Recommendation from a support coach in PDF or Word format. A support coach can be a medical professional, employer, therapist, etc.
- To be eligible for review, applicants must be 18 years or older and reside in the following counties in Indiana: Blackford, Delaware, Grant, Hamilton, Henry, Huntington, Howard, Jay, Jefferson, Johnson, Madison, Randolph, Wabash, Wayne, Wells & White County.
- After application period ends, all completed applications will be reviewed by the committee. The top ten most qualified applicants will be elected and contacted to move forward with the process.
- The Patient Coordinator will provide guidance to elected applicants on how to schedule their own initial evaluation by a dental professional.
- Once a dental care plan is submitted and approved by the committee, elected applicants will schedule their visit with our dental provider to have the work performed. 100% of all approved procedures will be funded by Spirits for Smiles.

Absolutely, you can reapply during any open application period. Previous submissions will not be queued to the next open application period, so if you were not elected previously you must complete the application again if you want to be considered.
The person in need of dental work will have to fill out the application themselves, but please send them a link to our website and encourage them to apply!
