Getting Kids Caught Up on Recommended Vaccinations

COVID-19 disrupted both in-person learning and routine well-child visits for many children over the last year. As a result, many children have fallen behind on receiving recommended vaccinations. Getting kids up to date on vaccinations protects them from serious diseases, and for WIC families with school-aged children, it helps to get kids back to in-person school safely. 

Visit the CDC's Immunization Schedules page to find:

• The Recommended Vaccinations for Infants and Children (birth through 6 years), Parent-Friendly Version.  On this page, you'll find free, downloadable schedules you can share with participants.

• A link to their Resources for Parents.
