Vaccines For Children Program

Health in the 406

Vaccines For Children Program

  • School is starting soon, which is the perfect time to get your child’s vaccinations up-to-date. Vaccinations are essential throughout childhood to protect children before they are exposed to potentially life-threatening diseases.
  • The Vaccines For Children (VFC) program was established by Congress in 1994 and provides all recommended vaccinations, at no cost, to eligible children in the U.S.
  • Learn more about the VFC Program and see if your child is eligible.
