Herschel S. Horowitz Scholarship
Dr. Horowitz was a leader in dental public health and left us with a wonderful legacy. To build on this legacy Alice Horowitz and her family have worked with the AAPHD Foundation to establish an annual scholarship to a dentist who is entering the discipline of public health through a masters level degree program in public health; and a scholarship to a dental hygienist who is pursuing a career in dental public health. The Herschel S. Horowitz Scholarship for Dentists provides financial support for Masters of Public Health (MPH) tuition and other expenses and is awarded in the amount of $10,000 per recipient. Those selected for this scholarship are urged to 'pay back' the funding by completing a residency program in dental public health, taking the Board of Dental Public Health and engaging in the discipline of dental public health. The Herschel S. Horowitz Scholarship for Dental Hygienists, created in 2023, provides financial support (up to $7,500) for hygienists to pursue a Masters of Public Health (MPH) or equivalent degree accredited by the Council on Education for Public Health (CEPH) or doctoral degree (DrPH, PhD) in a dental public health related area.
