My child is very scared of dental apt. The dentist that worked with him was very hostile, creating a bad environment for my child. Staff never introduced themselves. We were more like mached in the exam room. Every question or concern I had was met with accusations and scoffs. We will never go back!

Nonprofit Overview
Causes: Named Trusts, Philanthropy
Mission: The maria seymour brooker memorial's mission is to prepare children for life-long success through education, health services, family support and programs of excellence.
Programs: The children's dental clinic provides a full range of preventative and restorative dentistry to children who do not have dental insurance and to those children who have insurance through the state of connecticut husky plan (title xix). Uninsured children pay reduced fees based on family income. Preventative services are also provided in torrington schools and regional school district1.
in 1918, when charles f. Brooker formed the maria seymour brooker memorial, the articles of association (2) stated that. . . " the said corporation is formed to continue and perpetuate the works of benevolence, aid, charity and education to which maria seymour brooker of torrington, ct. ,was devoted throughout her life; and the chief purposes of the corporation are fourfold. Namely, the establishment and maintenance in torrington of a day nursery. . . " to this end, the childcare program perpetuates one of the original benevolent goals of the organization. The revenue generated by the child care program is used totally to offset the expense of the program.
in 2009, brooker formalized a department of outreach to coordinate its many programs that serve the community. Programs include pediatric therapies, dental education throughout the community, professional and parental education, health screening, family counseling and support of new program development.
