Suzy states that Building Bridges is what she will be doing during her presidency.  “I want to build a bridge to further strengthen the Smoking Cessation Initiative by educating as many hygienists and hygiene students as possible to promote smoking cessation to their patients.  I want to build a bridge to strengthen the ties between us and the Dental Society so that we can work closely with them on projects.  I want to build a bridge to strengthen the ties with the Hygiene students to motivate them to want to join and be a part of our organization and become active members. I will accomplish all this with the foundation and support of this society which is the Board that I will be working with.  We have a long road ahead of us and building bridges will help us get there.”
