The IDA Special Recognition Award is given to non-dentists for their service to the dental profession. One of this year's recipients is Ms. Candace Bradley.

Candace became involved in organized dentistry through her husband, Dr. Steve Bradley, allowing her to learn the many ins and outs of dentistry. Candace was appointed to the Iowa Dental Board in 2021 as one of its public members, giving her the chance to protect both the profession of dentistry and the public. She also serves as a legislative clerk for two representatives in the Iowa House.
