ilabilityFlag=True&pageNumber=1&Popup=#Purpose | Sponsor | Maternal and Child Health Bureau | Deadlines | July 14, 2010 | Purpose | The purpose of this program is to support national membership organization efforts focused on maternal and child oral health to assist their members to improve public oral health programs for women and children and the delivery of maternal and child oral health care services at the national, state and local levels. More specifically, funding support will allow these organizations to develop and disseminate new information about maternal and child health in a format most useful to policy and decision makers concerned with developing MCH policies and programs in the public and private sectors at local, State and national levels; to gather information from their membership about issues of concern relating to maternal and child oral health; to assist members to work together and with staff from other service programs to solve maternal and child oral health problems; and, to more clearly articulate the particular needs of women, children and their families in the nation at large. Strategies will be utilized that are focused on innovative and effective fundamental approaches to prevention, diagnosis, early intervention and treatment of oral disease, with focus on school-based comprehensive oral health access to services.
The Partnerships in Oral Health Leadership Cooperative Agreement program will support the following four (4) categorical efforts under this announcement:
1. Build capacity to train medical students in oral health;
2. Represent State oral health programs;
3. Represent oral health financing of State Medicaid and CHIPPRA programs; and,
4. Fund oral health programs through foundations. | Eligibility | Any public or private entity, including an Indian tribe or tribal organization, faith-based and community-based organization (as those terms are defined at 25 U.S.C. 450b), is eligible to apply for this Federal funding. | Geographic

"Development and Translation of Medical Technologies that Reduce Health Disparities (SBIR [R43/R44]). Purpose. This Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) encourages Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) grant applications from small business concerns (SBCs) that propose to develop and translate medical technologies aimed at reducing disparities in healthcare access and health outcomes. Appropriate medical technologies should be effective, affordable, culturally acceptable, and deliverable to those who need them. Responsive grant applications must involve a formal collaboration with a healthcare provider or other healthcare organization serving a health disparity population. A non-inclusive list of appropriate medical technologies that might achieve the objectives of this initiative are: - Telehealth technologies for remote diagnosis and monitoring
- Sensors for point-of-care diagnosis
- Devices for in-home monitoring
- Mobile, portable diagnostic and therapeutic systems
- Devices which integrate diagnosis and treatment
- Diagnostics or treatments that do not require special training
- Devices that can operate in low-resource environments
- Non-invasive technologies for diagnosis and treatment
- Integrated, automated system to assess or monitor a specific condition
http://grants.nih.gov/grants/guide/rfa-files/RFA-EB-10-002.html The US Department of Education is releasing funds for ŒProjects That Establish or Expand Full Service Community Schools. These funds could benefit primary care, oral care, or other services that SBHCs provide. They can also support the community schools model in your community.
Program Description
The Fund for the Improvement of Education (FIE), which is authorized by Sec. 5411 of ESEA, supports nationally significant programs to improve the quality of elementary and secondary education at the state and local levels and help all children meet challenging academic content and achievement standards. The Full-Service Community Schools program, which is being carried out under FIE, encourages coordination of education, developmental, family, health, and other services through partnerships between: (1) public elementary and secondary schools and (2) CBOs and public-private ventures. Such collaboration will provide comprehensive education, social, and health services for students, families, and communities.
To be very clear: this is not the funding for SBHC construction and funding in the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act. We are still awaiting those regulations.
Types of Projects Full-service community schools provide comprehensive academic, social, mental, physical, and vocational programs and services to meet individual, family, and community needs. For the FY 2008 competition, these services may include: early childhood education; remedial education and academic enrichment activities; programs that promote parental involvement and family literacy; mentoring and other youth development programs; parent leadership and parenting education activities; community service and service-learning opportunities; programs that provide assistance to students who have been truant, suspended, or expelled; job training and career counseling services; nutrition services; primary health and dental care; mental health counseling services; and adult education, including instruction of adults in English as a second language.
This is happening very quickly.
Applications became available on June 8.
The deadline for a notice of intent to apply for the grants is June 23.
Applications are due on July 23.
