The Moses-Weitzman Health System, Inc. was awarded a $849,256 Project Grant under the Maternal and Child Health Federal Consolidated Programs (CFDA 93.110) by the Maternal and Child Health Bureau to enhance oral health integration within the maternal and child health safety net in Connecticut. The 4-year project aims to: 1) improve oral health policy and literacy at Federally Qualified Health Centers, 2) conduct social determinants of health surveillance, 3) test preventive oral health services delivered through well-child visits, 4) improve oral health literacy at demonstration sites, and 5) build a robust data infrastructure. This collaborative effort involves key stakeholders such as the Community Health Center Association of CT, CT Dental Health Partnership, and the CT Department of Public Health to address the critical oral health challenges facing young children from low-income and minority backgrounds in the state.
