Shaping the Future of Oral Health Funding
ASTDD partnered with evaluation consultants from the Emory Centers for Public Health Training and Technical Assistance Center for Program Evaluation and Quality Improvement to conduct the Shaping the Future of Oral Health Funding Survey. The survey aimed to inform the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and other prospective funders about the impacts of past federal investments as well as respondent priorities for future funding cycles, including sustained federal investment in state and territorial oral health infrastructure, program implementation funds, and national technical assistance and capacity-building support.
