We all know that getting our children immunized can protect them from some very serious diseases. But, did you know that it can also…protect their friends, schoolmates, and others from the same disease?

The purpose of immunizations is to prevent disease. Today, children in the United States routinely get vaccines that protect them from 14 diseases. All of these diseases have, at one time or another, been a serious threat to children in this country. Most of them are now at their lowest levels in history, thanks to years of immunization.

All you need to do to get your child FREE immunizations at our monthly clinic is bring their CURRENT SHOT RECORD. Immunizations are for kids ages 0-12 and are provided by the Brazos County Health Department. A children’s play area and healthy snacks will be provided.
