Immunization Grants
Program Description
The Vaccines for Children (VFC) program purchases vaccines for children in certain eligibility groups (see below) who can't afford to buy vaccines. Doctors can get these vaccines for their patients who qualify by joining the VFC program in their state.The Section 317 Immunization program assists state and local health departments in purchasing vaccines. This program serves children and adults who primarily go to health departments for immunization services but are not eligible for the VFC program.
