BACKGROUND:

The Public Health Division’s Children’s Oral Health Program works in collaboration with school districts that have 75% of the student body enrolled in the Free and Reduced Lunch Program in East and West Contra Costa County. This Grant Award funds part-time registered dental hygienists to provide preventive oral health services including dental screenings, fluoride, sealants to elementary aged children, in not less than 18 schools in Contra Costa County.

BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)

Approval of Grant Award #28-366-1 will allow the County to receive funding for dental health services provided to elementary children in East and West Contra Costa County schools, through June 30, 2019. The Department received the award letter for these funds in July 2019.

If this Award is not approved the County will not be able to receive funding for the Children’s Oral Health Services.

This program supports the following Board of Supervisors’ community outcomes: “Children Ready For and Succeeding in School”; “Families that are Safe, Stable, and Nurturing”; and “Communities that are Safe and Provide a High Quality of Life for Children and Families”.
