SMILE Workforce Grants  


We awarded SMILE Workforce grants for the first time in 2024. These grants focus on addressing the dental workforce shortage impacting New Jersey and Connecticut.  

If your program is related to dental workforce development (dental assisting, dental hygiene, dental technicians), please contact Kim Elmore to learn more.
