Good afternoon (TVFC) Program Provider,

Your attendance is requested. If you are receiving this email, your TVFC Program-enrolled facility has experienced a decrease in influenza vaccination coverage rates between January 2022 and January 2023. To better understand these barriers and as part of the Texas DSHS Childhood Influenza Vaccine Initiative project, the DSHS Immunization Program will be conducting Flu Discovery Meetings for TVFC Program-enrolled providers that have experienced a decrease in influenza vaccination coverage rates.

Purpose of Meeting: To engage in a dialogue and gain insights from you regarding the factors and barriers that affect influenza vaccination practices in the communities you serve. We also aim to learn about your site's approach to promoting childhood influenza vaccinations to identify effective strategies. After the meeting, a survey will be sent out to help gather these valuable insights.

When: May 25, 2:00 – 3:30 p.m.

Where: https://attendee.gotowebinar.com/register/5607697749162835289

Please register using the link above. After registering, you will be sent a calendar invite.

We understand that you have valuable insights and perspectives that can help us better understand the challenges faced by your patients and families. Your input is critical in helping us develop effective materials and strategies for the communities you serve.

Thank you for your time and participation in this initiative.
