Kenny Williams, a U.S. Army veteran, travels from Rock Island to Iowa City for his dental appointments. Although he jokes about overcoming physical obstacles to make it to the University of Iowa College of Dentistry by 9 a.m., his day is in full swing before most Iowa Citians are awake.
Williams walks from his Rock Island home to the Davenport Burlington Trailways station to catch the 1:55 a.m. bus to Iowa City. He then waits in the lobby of the VA hospital until the dental school opens.
Williams, along with other low-income combat veterans, are part of a program called Everyone for Veterans, which provides free or reduced-cost dental care for servicemen and -women.
Ann Synan, a patient-relations specialist at the dental school, said the UI has been a part of Everyone for Veterans for about a year and has treated six veterans during the program’s short tenure in Iowa City.
