Recent Campaigns:

The coalition is working with Intersection Media to provide marketing on the bus wraps throughout the County. We have focused this campaign on the importance of getting vaccinated against the Flu, COVID-19, and Tdap for pregnant individuals. This campaign will be running from September until late November. Above are the designs that will be featured on the bus wraps. The graphics provide a QR code to access resources for families and parents through ImmunizePA.org.

 

Recent Events:

Vaccine Clinic at the Chester County Library on 11/27 

On November 27th from 9:30-12:30 the CCIC, Giant Pharmacy, and Angels Protection Inc. worked together to host a vaccine clinic. A dietician was available to provide guidance on healthy living and foods, and vaccines such as COVID-19 Boosters, Flu, RSV, and Shingles were provided to individuals. We had a great time providing giveaways and resources as well.

The Annual Vaccine Education Dinner Program

We hosted “The RSV Disease and Its Vaccine Education Dinner Program” on Tuesday, September 26th at the Downingtown Country Club! We hope that everyone who attended had a great time.

Again, we would like to thank our local organizations and pharmaceutical vendors, the Downingtown Country Club, and our presenters, Paul Reitano and Dr. Paul Offit for making this night happen!

 

Volunteer Opportunities:

One of the goals of the coalition is to increase community outreach, partner with different organizations, and educate vulnerable populations. We need the help of volunteers and coalition members to help make this happen!
