Opportunity Summary:

The ARRA Equipment to Enhance Training for Health Professionals - Residency Training in Dental Public Health opportunity (HRSA-10-176) is a Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) discretionary grant program funded under the Recovery Act. It sits within a broader HRSA effort called the Equipment to Enhance Training for Health Professionals (EETHP) Equipment Initiative, which covered 21 different health professional training programs authorized under Titles III, VII, and VIII of the Public Health Service Act. Even though the initiative shares common goals across programs, HRSA issued separate funding announcements for each eligible training program, and this specific announcement is narrowly aimed at the Residency Training in Dental Public Health (DPH) track.

The core purpose of this grant is to help eligible institutions purchase health professions training equipment that directly strengthens the training environment for dental public health residents. In practical terms, applicants were expected to request equipment that supports the activities and overall goals of a DPH residency program, meaning equipment that improves the program's ability to train dental public health professionals and deliver the educational components required by the discipline. The emphasis is on equipment purchases rather than general operating support, and the equipment must be tied to training needs rather than unrelated institutional upgrades.

Eligibility is limited to entities that meet the requirements to apply under the DPH program. Importantly, an applicant did not need to already be a current HRSA-funded DPH residency grantee to apply, but it did need to be eligible to apply for the Residency Training in Dental Public Health grant program. Eligible applicants are accredited schools of medicine, osteopathic medicine, dentistry, and public health. To qualify, an applicant also had to demonstrate that it has, or will have, full-time faculty with appropriate training and experience in preventive medicine or dental public health, along with support from other faculty trained in public health and other relevant specialties and disciplines. This framing signals that HRSA wanted assurance the equipment would be used in a real training program with appropriate instructional capacity, not just purchased in isolation.

From a funding standpoint, HRSA anticipated making a large number of awards (expected awards: 200) out of an estimated total funding pool of $50,000,000. Individual awards were relatively modest compared with the total pool, with a minimum (floor) of $5,000 and a maximum (ceiling) of $300,000. There was no cost sharing or matching requirement, which typically lowers barriers for eligible schools and programs that might not have institutional funds available to pair with federal dollars.

Key dates show this was a time-limited Recovery Act opportunity posted February 26, 2010, with an application deadline of March 26, 2010, and an archive date of May 25, 2010.
