WCCHD OFFERS SATURDAY CLINICS FOR BACK-TO-SCHOOL IMMUNIZATIONS AND PHYSICALS

It is Back-to-School time! Along with school supplies, children need immunizations to attend school. Williamson County and Cities Health District (WCCHD) is holding three back-to-school clinics at WCCHD Public Health Centers around Williamson County. Parents/guardians must bring their child’s most recent immunization records.

“It is important to make sure children receive their routine vaccinations when eligible to help protect their health and the health of classmates, friends and relatives.” said Dr. Amanda Norwood, WCCHD Medical Director.

Routine vaccinations available for children 18 and under who are eligible for the Texas Vaccines for Children (TVFC) program. This includes CHIP/Medicaid eligible, uninsured or having health insurance that does not cover the specific vaccine. Routine vaccinations are $14.00 per vaccine and require an appointment. Free Moderna and Pfizer COVID-19 vaccinations are available for six months and older including booster shots for qualified individuals.
