A Talk About Immunization

IMMUNIZATION, Is it safe?

JOIN US OCTOBER 10 & NOVERMBER 3 

Here at the Summit Area YMCA, we understand how essential awareness & education is to make important decisions about your health & safety. That's why we are committed to ensuring our community has opportunities to do so. This fall, we are proud to partner with the Maternal and Child Health of Northern New Jersey and the Union County Office of Health Management to host two important educational sessions sharing information and answering your questions about immunization.

Questions such as:

• What’s in a vaccine?
• What side effects are associated with getting vaccinated?
• Where can I get a vaccine?
• Can my child be vaccinated?

All of these questions (and MORE) will be answered at these free information sessions explaining what’s in vaccines, why vaccination is essential, and a simple overview of vaccines for common diseases such as COVID-19, Influenza, Monkeypox, HPV, and much more. Our educational session on October 10 will focus on immunization for Adults & Children, the session on November 3 focuses on immunization for Seniors.
