The Idaho Dental Foundation (IDF) operates as a charitable endowment fund dedicated to supporting community programs and organizations throughout Idaho. Its core mission is to enhance the oral health of Idaho’s underserved citizens by improving education and access to care. This grant program is aligned with the foundation's strategic priority to achieve the highest beneficial return for Idaho, focusing specifically on initiatives that directly address the oral health needs of vulnerable populations. The primary target beneficiaries of the IDF grants are Idaho's uninsured and working poor populations. The foundation's impact goals are centered on improving oral health outcomes within these groups. By funding projects that increase access to care and provide education, the IDF aims to reduce disparities in oral health and enhance the overall well-being of these citizens. The foundation's funding objectives clearly prioritize projects that improve the oral health of Idaho’s uninsured and those that increase the oral health of Idaho’s working poor. This focused approach ensures that grant funds are directed towards initiatives with a high potential for tangible impact on the most vulnerable. Typical grant awards range from $1,000 to $2,500, with a broader size of the grant from $1,000 to $10,000, indicating a preference for targeted, impactful projects. Expected outcomes and measurable results include improved oral health for the targeted populations, increased access to dental care services, and enhanced oral health education within underserved communities. While specific metrics are not detailed in the provided information, the focus on "improving" and "increasing" oral health implies a commitment to measurable progress in these areas. The foundation's theory of change is rooted in the belief that by supporting direct interventions and educational programs, it can effectively bridge the gap in oral healthcare access for Idaho's most in-need residents.

This Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) invites grant applications from institutions/organizations that propose to build a Medical Rehabilitation Research Center. The centers will have a specific rehabilitation research theme and be comprised of a research project supported by 3 cores. The 3 cores will have functions within the center as well as functions nationwide. Together, the cores will support: administrative functions (including an optional pilot program), resource sharing, and community engagement and outreach. The Medical Rehabilitation Research Centers will contribute tomedical rehabilitation research infrastructure by developing and disseminating techniques, data, theories, research programs, and expertise with the goal of enhancing the capability of medical rehabilitation investigators to understand mechanisms of functional recovery, develop therapeutic strategies, identify clinical care gaps, and improve the lives of people with disabilities. Applications must include a plan for inclusion of People with Lived Experience (as a required other attachment) that is relevant to the research theme of the center and increases the potential impact of the center.
