Purpose This funding opportunity is one of many for the Equipment to Enhance Training for Health Professionals (EETHP) program, hereby known as EETHP Equipment Initiative. Twenty-one health professional training programs comprise this initiative. As defined by this program, a Health Professional Training Program is a program authorized under Titles III, VII and VIII of the Public Health Service (PHS) Act which focuses all or in part on the training of health professionals. HRSA is announcing the availability of funds to support multiple programs in the purchase of health professions training equipment. While the overall goals of the EETHP Equipment Initiative are the same for each program, applicants must satisfy the statutory requirements of the health professions training program under which they are applying for equipment. Accordingly, a different funding announcement is being offered for each of the 21 eligible programs that comprise the Initiative.

Under this announcement number HRSA is announcing this initiative for those entities eligible for the EETHP-Predoctoral Training in General, Pediatric, and Public Health Dentistry grant program only. The equipment requested under this announcement should support activities and the goals of the program.

Eligibility To be eligible for the EETHP-Training in General, Pediatric, and Public Health Dentistry Equipment Initiative, an entity must be both eligible to apply for the respective program within the Training in General, Pediatric, and Public Health Dentistry grant program, and have the ability to carry out the requirements of the respective program within the Training in General, Pediatric, and Public Health Dentistry program, as if they were funded to do so. Entities eligible for grants to support training in general, pediatric, or public health dentistry include entities that have programs in dental or dental hygiene schools; or have approved residency or advanced education programs in the practice of general, pediatric, or public health dentistry. Therefore, for the purposes of this announcement, the use of “general, pediatric, and public health dentistry”, “primary care dentistry” and “dental faculty” shall include dental hygiene unless otherwise noted. Grants may be made to accredited dental or dental hygiene schools, public or private not-for-profit hospitals, or other pubic or not for profit entities to plan, develop, and operate, or participate in, an approved professional training program in the field of general dentistry, pediatric dentistry, public health dentistry, or dental hygiene for dental or dental hygiene students, dental residents, practicing dentists or dental hygienists, or other approved primary care dental trainees, that emphasizes training in general, pediatric, or public health dentistry.
