Opportunity Summary:
The ARRA Predoctoral Training in General, Pediatric, and Public Health Dentistry and Dental Hygiene grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number HRSA 10-262) was a discretionary grant program administered by the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) under CFDA 93.403, ARRA Grants for Training in Primary Care Medicine and Dentistry Training and Enhancement. It was designed to support projects that establish, maintain, or strengthen primary care dental training by helping cover the costs of predoctoral and postdoctoral education and training activities. In practical terms, the program aimed to expand and improve the training pipeline for the dental primary care workforce, with a focus on general dentistry, pediatric dentistry, public health dentistry, and dental hygiene, treating dental hygiene as included within the scope of "primary care dentistry" and related terms unless explicitly stated otherwise.
Funding for this opportunity was posted on April 28, 2010, with an application closing date of May 28, 2010, and an archive date of July 27, 2010. HRSA estimated a total of $20,000,000 in available funding and anticipated making about 60 awards. Importantly, the notice clarified that both the total funding level and the expected number of awards were not limited strictly to one sub-area, but rather represented the combined pool for all dental primary care programs supported under this initiative.
Eligible applicants were organizations capable of running or participating in approved training programs in the relevant dental primary care fields. This included accredited dental schools and dental hygiene schools, as well as public or private nonprofit hospitals and other public or nonprofit entities. Eligibility was tied closely to the existence of qualifying educational or residency infrastructure: applicants needed to have programs in dental or dental hygiene schools, or they needed to operate (or be affiliated with) approved residency or advanced education programs in general practice dentistry, pediatric dentistry, or public health dentistry. The program supported training for multiple learner types, including dental and dental hygiene students, dental residents, practicing dentists or dental hygienists seeking additional preparation, and other approved primary care dental trainees.
A central requirement was that the training activities be conducted by an accredited entity. That meant either the applicant organization itself had to be accredited, or the partner organization responsible for delivering the dental or dental hygiene training had to hold the appropriate accreditation. The announcement also allowed, and explicitly recognized, partnerships with schools of public health. These collaborations were intended to support dental and dental hygiene trainees who were pursuing a Master of Public Health (MPH) degree in an accredited public health program, reinforcing the public health and population-based orientation of primary care dentistry.
Overall, HRSA framed the grant as a way to invest ARRA resources into the primary care dental training system by funding projects that could plan, develop, operate, or participate in professional training programs emphasizing general, pediatric, and public health dentistry (and dental hygiene). The program did not require cost sharing or matching funds, lowering barriers for eligible nonprofit and public institutions to apply. For applicants needing help accessing the full announcement, HRSA directed inquiries to the HRSA Call Center via CallCenter@HRSA.GOV and provided phone contact information (877-464-4772, with a TTY number also listed).
