About this Toolkit

Toolkit Development

The Rural Oral Health Toolkit was first published on 7/26/2013 and last reviewed on 5/6/2022.

Toolkits are developed based on a review of FORHP grantees' applications, foundation-funded projects, and an extensive literature review, to identify evidence-based and promising models. Programs featured in the toolkit are interviewed to provide insights about their work and guidance for other rural communities interested in undertaking a similar project.
