Information about Community-Based Vaccine Events

Granville Vance Public Health is offering vaccines in various locations around our community as requested by employers, community members, and local organizations.  If you are interested in partnering with us to host a community-based vaccine event, please contact Gerald McNair, Vaccine Outreach Coordinator, at gmcnair@gvdhd.org or 919-277-1485. We will work together to determine a mutually agreeable date for us to be at a community location for about 3 hours to offer vaccines – this can be after business hours or on weekends as needed. When providing vaccines for community-based events, we typically ask the partner who is hosting the event to advertise and have conversations with friends, colleagues, family, neighbors, etc. to raise awareness about the vaccines and share the importance of getting a vaccine. We have found that YOU are one of the most trusted sources of information for those still making a decision about their vaccine.  We are happy to provide whatever information is needed to support you in this communication including electronic or printed materials.
