Advocacy, Community and Education: A new mission for the Irish Society for Disability and Oral Health
Background: The Irish Society for Disability and Oral Health (ISDH) was established in 2002. The organisational
statements of the Society at that stage had limited usefulness because they were too all-encompassing and
aspirational.
Aims and objectives: This study describes the development of updated ISDH Vision and Mission Statements, in
an effort to define its purpose and identity.
Methodology: A consensus process was initiated in 2016 to agree Vision and Mission Statements by adopting the
VMOSA framework. Attendees at the 2016 ISDH annual conference were invited to respond to three questions to
elicit their aspirations for the ISDH.
