Bill > SR691

This resolution recognizes and commends the Georgia School of Orthodontics (GSO), an accredited program founded in 2016 that trains dentists to become specialists in orthodontics and dentofacial orthopedics, which involves the correction of jaw and teeth alignment. The resolution highlights GSO's commitment to patient-centered care, teaching, research, and community service, specifically mentioning its "Gift of a Smile" program that offers free orthodontic care to those in need, and its new John Lewis Legacy Scholarships, an $8.5 million initiative providing scholarships to aspiring orthodontists in honor of the late Congressman John Lewis. The resolution further directs the Secretary of the Senate to provide a copy of this commendation to the Georgia School of Orthodontics.
