    In 2005, British Columbia’s Ministry of Health established a province-wide goal in relation to early childhood dental health: 60% of British Columbia’s kindergarten population will have “no visible decay experience.” To determine progress toward this provincial goal, the Ministry approached HELP to conduct a systematic four-year evaluation of the BC Early Childhood Dental Programs. The report presented herein responds to four evaluation questions through a synthesis of qualitative and quantitative findings that were generated over the course of the four-year evaluation project.
