Adolescent Immunization Action Week
April 3rd - 7th, 2023
April 3rd - 7th is Adolescent Immunization Action Week (#AIAW23).
UNITY Consortium is urging parents, healthcare providers, and adolescents to help keep adolescents up to date on their immunizations.
Vaccination helps prevent adolescents and young adults from getting sick and missing out on activities that are important to them.
Immunizations are safe, effective, and timed to start protecting adolescents before they are likely to be exposed to serious, potentially life-threatening diseases, including meningitis, tetanus, diphtheria, whooping cough, HPV-related cancers, COVID-19, and flu.
This page will be continuously updated with new resources to help you to spread the word about #AIAW23. In the meantime, please subscribe to our mailing list using the form below to receive the latest updates.
