Courtney LaHatte

The Smiley Kids Club, led by Courtney, addresses the dental health and nutritional needs of Baldwin County, Georgia. Through the Club, Courtney uses visual demonstration, child-centered activities, songs, and literacy and discussion to engage and educate children on health and dental hygiene. By putting its focus on children at a young age, the Club makes an impact on children’s lives that can instill lifelong healthy habits. The hope is that if children develop positive dental hygiene practices at a young age, they will retain them throughout adulthood.
