Immunizations

Childhood Immunizations 

Immunizations are provided at no cost to children, from birth through 18 years of age to those who meet eligibility requirements. Before any child may enter daycare or attend school, they must be current on their vaccines. Proof of vaccinations are required. Immunizations can protect your child, family, friends and their families and the community.
For an interactive childhood immunization schedule tool for children 6 years of age and younger visit the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
