A grant from the Community Foundation of Howard County will expand dental offerings at IHC’s Kokomo clinic.

Kokomo – Indiana Health Centers is excited to announce that we have received a 2026 Impact Grant from the Community Foundation of Howard County to support the expansion of dental services in our IHC Kokomo clinic.

The grant will fund new dental equipment and allow the clinic to provide more comprehensive oral healthcare locally, improving access to treatment for underserved residents. Because of the grant, IHC Kokomo will now be able to provide crowns, root canals and dentures for patients in Howard County.

“At IHC, we are strong believers in whole person health, and investing in a patient’s smile can have a ripple effect to improving their nutrition, confidence, and other health outcomes. We are excited to expand the dental care we can offer and improve the overall oral health of Howard County,” said Ann Lundy, Chief Executive Officer of Indiana Health Centers. “Thanks to the generous support from the Community Foundation of Howard County, we will be able to better address the whole health of our patients.”

The funding was provided by the Community Foundation of Howard County’s 2026 Impact Grants award program, which was made possible through funding from the Lilly Endowment Inc. as part of the ninth phase of its Giving Indiana Funds for Tomorrow (GIFT IX) initiative.
