Vaccination is a community effort. By vaccinating children on schedule, families in New Jersey help protect vulnerable populations who cannot be vaccinated and help prevent outbreaks.

Join @njaap.bsky.social to a three-part educational series designed to help pediatric care teams better support immigrant families with compassionate, informed care.
