Opportunity Summary:
The Dental Public Health Residency Training Grants (Funding Opportunity Number HRSA 09-200) is a discretionary grant program run by the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) to strengthen the dental public health workforce through residency education. The core purpose is to help organizations plan and develop new dental public health residency training programs, as well as maintain, improve, and expand existing accredited programs. A major emphasis is also placed on providing financial assistance to residents (trainees) who are enrolled in these dental public health residency programs, helping reduce the financial barrier to advanced training in population-based oral health practice.
This opportunity supports activities tied directly to formal residency training in dental public health, meaning it is aimed at institutions that can deliver structured, accredited education and supervised practical experiences. In practical terms, the grant is meant to help programs build capacity and quality, such as strengthening curriculum and training experiences, ensuring adequate faculty support, and improving a program's ability to recruit and support residents. While the announcement summary is brief, the stated scope clearly centers on workforce development and the long-term public health impact of training dentists to work in surveillance, prevention programs, community interventions, policy, and management of oral health programs at the population level.
Eligibility is limited to entities that offer a Dental Public Health Training Program accredited by the American Dental Association Commission on Dental Accreditation (CODA). Examples mentioned include schools of public health or dentistry, but the eligibility language also allows for government and nonprofit entities, including faith-based and community-based organizations, as long as they meet the program requirements and operate or sponsor an accredited residency program. Applicants are expected to demonstrate institutional readiness and capacity, specifically that they have, or will have, full-time faculty with appropriate training and experience in dental public health, along with support from other faculty in public health and related specialties. This requirement signals that HRSA is looking for programs with strong mentorship, interdisciplinary teaching, and credible academic and practical infrastructure.
From a funding and administrative standpoint, this is a grant (not a contract), categorized under the Health funding activity area, and it does not require cost sharing or matching. HRSA anticipated making about 5 awards under this cycle, with an estimated total funding amount of $481,316. The program is associated with CFDA number 93.236 (Grants to States to Support Oral Health Workforce Activities), which places it within a broader federal framework focused on oral health workforce development and system capacity building.
Key dates for this specific announcement show it was posted on October 10, 2008, with an application closing date of December 1, 2008, and it was later archived on January 30, 2009.
