About UNITY

No one likes disease, let alone being affected by any that are completely avoidable. With so much information flying around in the digital age, it has become increasingly difficult for people to distinguish fact from opinion.

 

Unity® Consortium, in conjunction with trusted partners in both private and public sectors, aims to eliminate misinformation and provide the rights tools and resources to ensure a future that is free of preventable diseases.

Our Members and Liaisons

This Consortium is the first of its kind to unite public and private organizations to share data and research and collaborate on initiatives aligned with our mission.

Our Initiatives

While education is key, it is only half the battle: engagement and action are necessary to strive for change. In coordination with dedicated healthcare providers, parents, and adolescents, UNITY facilitates programs and studies with actionable results to increase visibility in the community.

Pursuit of the Three Cs:

Confident, Concise, and Consistent. Healthcare provider recommendations are a critical influence on parent and adolescent agreement to vaccinate on time.
