Community Engagement Evaluation and Data Coordination (CEED) Hub to Advance Data and Practice Transformation for Optimizing Oral Health for All (U01, Clinical Trial Not Allowed)
About
The purpose of this Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) is to seek applications for a Community Engagement Evaluation and Data coordination hub (CEED) for the Community-Based Participatory Research (CBPR) consortium: Advancing Data and Practice Transformation (ADAPT) for Optimizing Oral Health for All. In addition to CEED, the ADAPT consortium will include separately funded CBPR projects, which will receive consultative services from the NIH Community Engagement Alliance Consultative Resource (CEACR) and join in the Science Collaborative for Health and Artificial Intelligence Reduction of Errors (SCHARE) platform for the overarching goal of promoting data use and transformational community engagement to optimize oral health for all people. The CEED hub will coordinate communications and various activities in support of CBPR projects and consortium functions in three domains:1) Data Planning, Consultation, and Technical Assistance for Research Methodology and Analytics; 2) Community Engagement Evaluation; and 3) ADAPT Infrastructure and Operational Support.
The Community Engagement Evaluation and Data Coordination (CEED) Hub is a federally-funded opportunity designed for organizations committed to advancing oral health equity through community-based participatory research. This grant supports the establishment of a coordinating hub that will serve the ADAPT consortium, focusing on three critical domains: data planning and technical assistance for research methodology, community engagement evaluation, and consortium infrastructure support. Organizations applying for this grant should have expertise in community engagement, data coordination, and oral health research. The CEED Hub plays a vital role in facilitating communication and collaboration among multiple CBPR projects while providing consultative services and supporting the SCHARE platform for data utilization. This is an ideal opportunity for research institutions, public health organizations, and academic centers seeking to lead transformational community engagement efforts that optimize oral health outcomes across diverse populations. The grant emphasizes partnership, data-driven decision-making, and sustainable community collaboration to address oral health disparities nationwide.
