2023 Annual Meeting
Join us October 27, 2023, for the Coalition's third annual meeting!
Our annual meeting serves as an organizing vehicle for immunization stakeholders from across Virginia to discuss challenges and threats to immunization rates, including ‘grassroots and grasstips’ advocacy; receive professional education and information on statewide immunization trends and best practices; engage in developing strategies to improve immunization rates across the Commonwealth.

Identifying future threats to immunization rates in Virginia and opportunities to address them.
-
Providing information and education on immunization topics relevant to current vaccination trends in Virginia.
