The Department of Health is offering a grant to establish a multidisciplinary research consortium aimed at reducing oral health disparities in vulnerable U.S. children. Researchers will develop interventions to address health disparities in children aged 0-21, with a focus on community engagement and partnerships. The grant seeks to identify effective strategies to prevent disease and improve treatments, ultimately eliminating oral health disparities in children. The initiative utilizes the UH2/UH3 cooperative agreement award mechanism, with funding for planning, feasibility testing, and transition to implementation phases. Applicants must address objectives for both UH2 and UH3 stages.

| Description: | The overall goal of this initiative is to establish effective interventions or programs to reduce or eliminate oral health disparities and inequalities in vulnerable U.S. children who are between 0 and 21 years of age. Multidisciplinary teams of investigators will refine and test an intervention or evaluate outcomes of an existing program or policy intended to reduce health disparities and inequalities. Community engagement and other partnerships are essential for the holistic, multilevel approaches required by this FOA. This research is intended to lead to identification, validation, dissemination and implementation of effective approaches to prevent disease or facilitate treatments, helping to reduce and ultimately eliminate oral health disparities and inequalities in children.
This FOA will use the UH2/UH3 cooperative agreement award mechanism and runs in parallel with a companion FOA that solicits applications for the Data Coordinating Center (RFA-DE-15-007). Funding for an exploratory UH2 stage will be used for planning, feasibility testing, and developing study documents, including the study protocol and Manual of Procedures. UH2 projects that have met milestones will be administratively considered for transition to the UH3 implementation phase. Applicants responding to this FOA must address objectives for both the UH2 and UH3 phases. |
