Community Connection for Child Care

Care (CCCC) Foundation, Kern County Children's Dental Health Network and
Kern Education Television Network, operated by the Kern County Superintendent
of Schools. CCCC got the ball rolling in December 2005, when it applied for and
received a grant from the American Dental Association (ADA) Harris Fund to support
the production of two Public Service Announcements (PSAs) in English and Spanish
to be aired on local television stations in Kern County.

floss their teeth daily and have regular dental check-ups. More
