KDH Research & Communication (KDHRC) submits this Phase II Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) application to expand and fully evaluate Guardians Receiving Information through Navigators (GRIN). GRIN is a culturally competent, online professional development course to prepare community health workers (CHWs) to provide oral health outreach to low- income Black parents/guardians (henceforth guardians) of children and adolescents. GRIN seeks to increase CHWs’ knowledge, attitudes and beliefs, perceived self-efficacy, and intentions to conduct oral health outreach to Black guardians. The need for GRIN is great. Tooth decay, especially when untreated, creates lasting and substantial physical and psychosocial consequences for children and adolescents. Minority and low-income populations have disproportionately high rates of tooth decay and related consequences. Compared to non-Hispanic White children, Black children are less likely to receive preventive dental visits, and experience more untreated tooth decay. Moreover, children living in poverty are twice as likely as children not living in poverty to experience primary tooth decay. To address these needs and meet calls to action for evidence-based programs to support CHWs to conduct oral health outreach to Black guardians of children and adolescents, KDHRC developed GRIN. Our Phase I efforts yielded a prototype with supportive feasibility results and solid partnerships on which we base our Phase II approach. Indeed, CHW professional organizations, including the National Maternal and Child Oral Health Resource Center, the National AHEC Organization (NAO), and Morehouse School of Medicine, commit to the scientific execution and commercial distribution of this project and substantiate GRIN’s programmatic importance and commercial potential. In Phase II, we will develop additional interactive content, film video vignettes, and finalize GRIN. Then, we will conduct a well-powered and methodologically strong two-condition randomized controlled trial to test GRIN’s effectiveness. Our market research suggests a significant need and eager market, and support from myriad stakeholders committed to GRIN’s scientific rigor and rapid dissemination further substantiate GRIN’s importance and commercial potential to address extant oral health disparities that are likely exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic.

KDH研究与传播（KDHRC）提交了II阶段小型企业创新 研究（SBIR）应用程序以扩展和完全评估收到信息的监护人 通过导航器（笑）。笑是一种具有文化胜任的在线专业发展 为社区卫生工作者（CHW）做准备的课程，以提供口腔健康外展 收入的黑人父母/监护人（此后为儿童和青少年）。笑 寻求提高CHW的知识，出现和相信，感知自我有效和意图 向黑人监护人进行口腔健康宣传。 对笑容的需求很大。蛀牙，尤其是在未经治疗的情况下，会产生持久的和 对儿童和青少年的实质性和社会心理后果。少数派和 低收入人群的蛀牙率不成比例 结果。与非西班牙裔白人儿童相比，黑人儿童不太可能 接受预防性牙科探访，并体验到更多未处理的蛀牙。而且，孩子们 生活在贫困中的可能性是不生活在贫困中的孩子的两倍 衰变。解决这些需求并满足采取行动的循证计划的呼吁，以支持 CHW向KDHRC的儿童和青少年的黑人监护人进行口腔健康外展 发出的笑容。我们的第一阶段努力产生了一个原型，具有支持性的可行性结果和 我们以II阶段方法为基础的可靠合作伙伴关系。确实，CHW专业人士 组织，包括国家母亲和儿童口腔健康资源中心， 国家AHEC组织（NAO）和Morehouse医学院致力于 该项目的科学执行和商业分销并证实了Grin的 程序化重要性和商业潜力。 在第二阶段，我们将开发其他交互式内容，电影视频小插图并最终确定 笑。然后，我们将进行一个能力且方法强的两条条件 随机对照试验，以测试Grin的有效性。我们的市场研究表明 巨大的需求和渴望的市场，以及致力于Grin's的无数利益相关者的支持 科学严谨和快速传播进一步证实了Grin的重要性和商业性 潜力解决额外的口腔健康分配，这可能会因199 大流行。
