Lance Harris (Navajo Nation) Undergraduate

Lance Harris (Navajo Nation) is an undergraduate student with a passion for improving dental health in Native communities. Inspired by his little sister’s challenges in finding an orthodontist, Lance is pursuing a career in dentistry to help ensure Native youth have access to quality dental care.

Through the Healers Community Circle, Lance is launching a Dental Hygiene Education Initiative for schools on the Navajo Reservation. By working with local schools and the Western Agency of the Navajo Nation, he aims to teach young students about the importance of oral health and cavity prevention—empowering them with knowledge for brighter, healthier smiles.
