California Immunization Coalition Summit - 2023

The 2023 California Immunization Coalition Summit will focus on key learnings and experiences from the pandemic that will continue to inform our work in disease prevention, and our understanding of the challenges around vaccine confidence, along with a status update on Californias immunization programs.

Your attendance at this statewide event helps to expand your knowledge about immunization issues and communication strategies and will help you connect with public health colleagues and private sector representatives while also helping us to expand our Coalition network and identify partnerships that enable us to educate and support our communities. The Summit is a terrific opportunity to renew our collective vision to make access to vaccinations and disease prevention a reality for all Californians. We have missed meeting with you!
