Background and Discussion:

Harris County Public Health was awarded $120,000 through NACCHO's "Improving the Health of Young Children: Expanding Vaccination Coverage through Partnerships with Early Care and Education (ECE) Programs. This grant provides funds to develop and maintain sustainable partnerships between local health departments and early care and education programs to increase adherence to recommended vaccination schedule for children 0 to 5 years of age.

 

Expected Impact:

HCPH's Office of Communication, Education, and Engagement will utilize these funds to help promote the re-launch of HCPH's Immunization clinic, which will resume this fall after a 10-year hiatus. The funds help fulfill our health promotion strategic goal by enhancing outreach efforts to improve the health of Harris County’s youngest residents and counteract vaccine misinformation.
