As a local practicing dental hygienist, you serve on the board of a community-based dental clinic that provides oral healthcare services and school-based primary preventive initiatives in the Title I schools of the local school district. You and another board member collaborate to write a grant to help support the school-based prevention programs. What Healthy People 2020 objectives would you be targeting with the grant? What data would be required to demonstrate a need for funding for sealant and fluoride varnish programs for school children in your community? Where could you find data to help with the grant proposal?
Subject: Question 2
Select three Healthy People 2020 oral health objectives. For each one, describe what data sources you would use to retrieve existing data for your local area population.
