Rhode Island 2018-2019 Annual Report Office of Immunization, August 2019

Background

Vaccination is one of the best ways to protect children and adolescents from 16 potentially harmful diseases, many of which can be deadly. The Rhode Island Department of Health (RIDOH) Childhood Immunization Program’s mission is to protect all Rhode Island children from these vaccine-preventable diseases.

Vaccinate Before You Graduate (VBYG), a school-located vaccination program, helps achieve this mission by making 11 important vaccines available to Rhode Island middle and high school students at no out-of-pocket cost. Many of these vaccines are required for school entry.
