CareQuest Philanthropy: Grants in Oral Health

About this program

CareQuest Institute for Oral Health offers grants to support projects that expand access to the oral health system by changing care structure and delivery to improve population oral health outcomes—typical initiatives include expanding preventive services, integrating oral and medical care, applying technology for early detection, and addressing access disparities. Priority topics include policy and advocacy, care delivery, community capacity, and research, with emphasis on rural communities, people with disabilities, and older adults across the United States and U.S. territories. Eligible applicants are U.S.-based nonprofit or not-for-profit organizations; applications are accepted on a rolling, two-phase basis beginning with a 500-word concept submitted via the program’s online portal, after which selected organizations may be invited to submit full proposals and award amounts are not listed.
